they say, battery is poor with XQ1. What about XF1 battery - has it long life?

Battery life is a function of size so I get about 250 shots per charge. I have two extra batteries as should any digital camera owner.

I have had the XF1 for two years and am still on the first battery . . .I love this camera.

The battery lasted about as long as most. I bought a back up, so I never worried.

Depending on how much you use flash, delve frequently into menus, etc., you can usually expect pretty decent battery life. I've gone a whole day shooting over 200 exposures without depleting the battery entirely.

Hi Allan,I bought several of the GXT5000's about 8 months ago and sent it back because of battery issues (dead batteries). The manufacture of the battery was hit by a typhoon and have not reopened since (source: Midland Manufacture). I bought several of the GXT 1000's and it's by far the best radio on the market. The batteries are all over the internet. We use the radios commercially for a warehouse. I hope this helps.

Both of mine are junk they are not holding the charge, I tried to recharge themail and shows full charge but my X4 goes into error lights blinking won't work I thought maybe since I crashed it that I wrecked it, I had 1 good battery from when I bought it and it works ok so my new batteries are junk!! Don't waste your money

It does not specify on the batteries as to what they are. It doesn't really matter though, the X1 is a low draw aircraft and they last a reasonable amount of time with no damage or puffing.

Not sure. Doesn't matter with the Syma x1 they last forever. Balance is perfect and wouldn't even try a different battery unless your trying to use it with a different flying machine.

Hasn't been a problem for me but the more I read, the more I see owners having 'issues' with power-related matters (not fully charging, etc.). The battery on the unit itself seems to perform well under stated times and (for me) is slow to recharge. Good luck with it.

I also agree with Andrew. I bought this battery and simply installed it and it has worked fine ever since (more than 3 months now). I went from about 6 hours per day of life to now about 12 under normal use.

I've left mine charging for several days, and have never had performance issues with the battery. I know that's purely anecdotal, but its not something I've ever had an issue with.

Apparently I have the "old" version (D cell batteries) but I've had the unit for several years and they've been no problem. I'd guess that they're using more solid state components and so are requiring less power -- thus the smaller batteries. In any case the system works, and works well. I wouldn't sweat the small stuff. PS - Also have the HWH system and have the same experience with it.

The x4 has a smaller hard drive, and a 2 year warranty, and is silver. The x5 has a larger hard drive, a 1 year warranty, and is black. Both have 8 cell batteries, but I don't know if the x4 comes with the higher capacity one, or if it ships with the same one that the x5 uses. When the battery doesn't change the weight of the unit, and is the same number of cells, why change it? Just wondering.

I use the XC batteries with mine for longer life, however you can use compact if you choose

Not advised because the battery has a short life before being charged again. I have heard complaints about the 7710 locking up and have to be reset. I bought one and returned it for credit because it would not turn on. I bought a 7720 at the last FMCA Rally and they told me there are other glitches with the 7710. I would suggest buying the 7720 if you haven't bought one yet.

Hi Tom- i have a x2 and it's working on mine. Doesn't hold a charge like a new battery should but it's better than the old one..

Thanks very much for your response. I'm only getting about an hour or less of battery life. I'm very disappointed. Thanks again.

I've had to replace my Logitech once due to bad battery performance *lasted 5 months the first time* under guarantee. The second pair lasted exactly the same lenth of time, and the store gave me my money back. The headset is the best I have owned, but the battery life is awful. I wouldn't chance buying another set, so I bought a set of Asus ones from Amazon, and they are excellent. AND a lot cheaper!!!!

The specs for the GX1 indicate approximately 150-170 min when recording still images and 65-75 min when recording motion pictures, while playback would get approximately 240-290 min. I have not tested the battery life so can not comment on how real life use of the camera compare to the stated specs. However, from my experience of using the GX1 the battery life has not been an issue at all. The GX1 remains one of my favorite cameras.

Want to know when the battery issue is resolved.The laptop seems great, but the battery work for just one hour instead of 6.5hours and there is a need to resolve this issue as soon as possible.
