why does it say that maintains the charge for up yo 1 year? it wont work after 1 year?

The other answers are NOT correct. If you charge this battery completely and don't use it, it will hold that charge for a month or two at most. The 1 year that they specify is that the device will work at maximum capacity for one year. After that, it will slowly begin to degrade, and hold less and less of a charge. This happens to EVERY battery, even the internal one in your Vita.The device will probably last you more than a year (mine has), but that disclaimer is on there to let you know that it won't work to its full, advertised capacity after a year of use.

Probably because all batteries lose charge over time. That means you can fully charge the battery and if DO NOT plug something into it, it will stay "full" up to a year.

each battery has efficiency in both storing and output. in a year. its safe to say that the battery lost bout 25% of the charged volume.

If you charge it, it will stay charged up to 1 year not that it will only work for a year.

Not sure I understand your question. Mine has worked wonderfully for over a year

Youre supposed to let it charge for a few hours the first day you get it. If that doesnt work maybe you should contact the company and get a new one.

I too am unsure, but believe it was for 1 year. Interesting there were negative responses from others. I was pleased with mine and didn't have the problems others mentioned. In fact I am charging mine up right now so I can use it again this year. I especially liked that it was light weight which was just what I needed.

Mine still works. Call the manufacturer. There should be a 1 year warranty with it??

Yes. They charge and then they just maintain. What you're suggesting is what I've been doing for quite some time with no issues at all.

Not sure ... Usually 1 year I have had mine for quite awhile Works perfectly

I did not note the date. I bought 2. I used one for at least 1 year without issue. Opened the other 1 year later and it worked without an issue.

Mine says one year. I would really like to know how to call them for set-up help. That's not in my CD manual.
