I haven't gotten that far along, but I'm estimating at least six months. The light only stays on about 15 seconds so it can go longer. I used alkaline batteries.

I got my lights early December & they are in use every day and still very bright

I bought mine in October 2012. Using alkaline battery. It has started to dim a little bit. So at least it lasts for 4 months.

I personally do not knwo as I used them for a teaching aid in a project but depending on what batteries you use they can last anywhere from 24-48 hours continuous (LEDs on). The consumption on it in standby mode is very little (~70 micro Ah) so depending on if it is placed in a high volume traffic area or not will also determine how fast the batteries deplete. The consumption when it is on and lite is ~70 mAh.

It really depends on how often it is activated. I have had mine up for over a monthsand have cats that activate it. I have not had to change the batteries yet.

I have been using these at least a year, and have not changed batteries yet.

I don't know. I use them within a week of charging. Some that have set for 6 months still have a bit of charge to last at least an hour probably, but I didn't pay attention.

Not long. about 15 mins. of run time. I bought a second battery so i could easily swap them out and keep going.

The battery life is about 12 hours as it says on the package yet i know personally that they have lasted 10, so that is the maximum that i have tried it.

Most batteries last 4-5 days depending on how many hours you have them on each day.

They last quite a while. I mainly use them for my son's wireless remote for his Xbox 360, he plays everyday, somedays he plays allday and on average we usually have to recharge them every 3-4 months. I found them to be better than an OEM battery we've had.

The rechargeable batteries last about 8 hours of continuous play. They are great for travel. Regular AA batteries might last 3-4 hrs of continuous play.

We used these on our 9 day trip in New Zealand and found the battery would last all day, which was often at least 8 hours of usage. We didn't need to use them beyond that. I.e. battery life was never a problem for us.

Quite a while. I have owned this for well over a year now, and I have only replaced the batteries once.

A very long time. I would say somewhere around 30 hours. The battery lasts forever though.

they last pretty long for me. It really depends on the type of item your using these batteries for. But for me they always last at least 5 hours. Theyre pretty reliable for me. They also take like a day to fully recharge for me, i go to sleep & when i wake up their fully charged.

Mine are still on the original batteries and I've used them through 3 dinner parties. They have run approximately 12 hours for me and there is still light. They are led lights so they pull very little off the batteries.

The only time battery life was an issue is when I left them on for the whole day when went to work. They take triple A. Just don't throw away the battery it comes with

We usually don't use ours for more than 90 minutes of continuous use. They could probably hit 2 1/2 hours with a decent battery, but it might be a stretch. I don't know if you need them to run continuously for the whole time, but we try to conserve power by turning them off when not actively in use. We're running them on Energizer rechargables.

the battery life lasts approx 4-8 hours...sometimes longer if not used continuously.
