"never worry about power - with up to 5 hours of video or a hundred hours of music on a single charge of the 2-cell Lithium Polymer battery"This is from the description.

Battery life will be between 5 hours to 8 hour depending if you are running video or gaming. Also note that Bluetooth and or WiFi will draw a lot of power as well and could affect the overall battery life. This is not limited to the eLocity tablet but to all devices.

Just spoke with someone from company. Apparently it's an Amazon Systems Error. The elocity tablet is being shipped to Amazon and should be there by next week.

Hi. The battery Will run for about 5+ hours if you are using the power saver configuration and you are just browsing or using Word. Any heavy use (vídeos, streaming, large databases, etc) and the battery Will last for about 3 hours.

It will depend of how you are using it, for normal use like internet browsing it last up to 6 hours, but for gaming or video I could experience 4 hours at full brightness. Overall the battery life it's very very good

Depends very much on what you are running. Using WIFI and doing typical work activities such as email, web browsing, word, etc., I have seen over 9 hours. If you're watching a movie streamed via 4GLTE the battery life does suffer. I have not timed it, but 6 hours seems pretty close under those contitions.

I use it for everything except movie watching (I use a chromecast for that). Battery life is actually pretty good. It does not handle super graphics intense games, but It can run Sims 3 for example on the fastest speed with pretty good ease. More graphics intense games would probably struggle a bit or need to have settings lowered. I have been able to play games for at least two hours (maybe three) without the battery going dead. Web browsing and word processing could last a much greater amount of time.

I test the battery when I just get it. I put a movie on repeat play over the night . I got 9 HOURS continously play.

There is no easy access for the battery, i guess if you are a tech geek you can have a crack at it at your own risk, otherwise you would need a professional to do it.From my personal usage (Internet, Apps & Games) battery life is pretty good as i never ran out of battery, if you are more using it for movies it might drain the battery quicker but i can not comment on this.

Using programs with high PC usage such as video games the battery can last over an hour. Playing DVDs it will last several hours and light use it could last all day. I received two batteries with my computer.

I don't know exactly how long the battery lasts (it said up to four hours in the book) but I enjoy movies on it in the evening and I never have problems with the battery running down. I have worked from it in other areas (unplugged) and it certainly keeps me on long enough.

I'm not entirely certain what your terminology stands for, however I know that I can get 6 hours normal computer time or I can watch 2 and 1/2 full length movies before the battery dies. If you would expand upon your question I would be more than happy to help you. LGF

Not sure what you're asking. The stock battery life is about 2 hours (less if Wifi is on). You'll get about that for HDMI playback. Be sure to get the right HDMI type cable (non-ethernet), as the camera tends to be a bit finicky about what it likes to connect to. I've found that it's often easier to use the USB connection instead, if the monitor provides that.

Depending on what resolution and frames per second you have it set for, the battery can last anywhere from 8 hours to 3 hours on a single charge. The camera battery is quick to charge though so high quality video is always an option.

I'm looking at this red T12 model as well... so which is it? yes or no? Why is it a question on Amazon can't ever get answered w/o conflicting answers? Not that it matters much if this thing really has 12 hours of battery life.....Well I just received mine actually, 3-4 days after posting this comment, and I can tell you for certain that Urban Geeks has no clue wtf he's talking about. They WILL play while it's plugged in. I dont' know if the battery really lasts 12 hours but why you would be playing this longer then that is beyond me...... by the way, check out my review I just posted. These things are a lot better then you'd expect. I'm looking at this red T12 model as well... so which is it? yes or no?

Hard to tell since I'm always recharging. But an hour seems pretty short but honestly, I'm confident my full charge doesn't last much over 90 minutes, especially when watching videos.

The battery doesn't last as long as the specs say it will, but then again, that is the case with all computers. I use quite a bit of CPU throughout the day, so without charging I would say it lasts 4 to 5 hours. Given the amount of CPU I'm using, I'm very please with that. If you are just using Microsoft Word and maybe 2 tabs of whatever browser, I would imagine the battery lasts much longer than 4-5 hours.

It really depends on the work you do. I can easily watch two complete movies and still have some battery left. About internet and web browsing.. kind of 6 hours straight. When i use it for different things along the day... i usually have to recharge it every two days (not heavy user obviously)

The battery life has been pretty great for me. I've played Star Craft 2, a very resource-intensive game, for a few hours before plugging in. You might eventually consider a laptop cooling pad, as the small case can sometimes lead to overheating.
