How long does the battery last before needing charged?

I have used it for two days fishing for twelve hours each day and when I brought it home it was fully charged again in a couple of hours. It uses very little juice. I have that one might use a bit more with the back light on at night. This is a great portable fish finder I highly recommend it.

Typically with lots of use it generally lasts 1-2 hours depending on use and takes approximately 3 hours for the battery to charge up to full capacity again. I hope this helps with your decision.

In my experience, a fully charged battery lasts 7 to 8 hours, depending on how loud you have it and how far from the base station it is.

The first time we charged the battery before we used it took 18 hours. After that we just charge it overnight. I think it was recommended to charge it 5-6 hours after using it.

Battery Life is the time of how long the battery will stand until needing charged, this battery life has a long span time before needing charged.

I've had mine for months and only charged it the initial time. I don't recall how long it took. I only use it a couple of times a week but the charge has held.

I would leave the battery plugged in for a full 24 hours before first using it. I thought it was charged enough when I first put mine together to try mowing my front yard and I didn't get very far before it died. I charged it for 24 hours and the next evening it worked great and stayed charged for both my front and back yards.

it comes with a very small charge. You need to charge first before you can use it correctly.

not very long at all..I only charged it about 2 hours and it was ready to go.

Less then an hour. However, I never stood there to check for every 5 minutes to know exactly, but when I am checking back in an hour the charge is completed. I am actually very pleased with this. I got a second battery also that I am charging when the one in the camera is toward its end...

The most I have had battery life is a little over 2 hrs. If you charge it and don't use it right away it will die. But honestly for the money its a good price. Hope this helps.

Battery life is pretty sufficient... Usually three hours of constant use before requiring charging.

Yes, the charge is supposed to last for 15 hours. I find that it lasts for about 6-7 hours.

Takes about 4 hrs. to charge; charge last about 20 minutes; suggest you have @ least 2 batteries.

I find that I get 16-18 hours of use before a recharge is needed. If I don't use it, but leave it on it lasts for about a week.

I just used mine for 6 straight hours, and 2 hours the day before, still going strong. I would estimate 10 hours full charge to dead.

I would charge it a good 24 hours before use. I am still using it on the first charge.
