Fernando,I have had one of these for over one year and another for about 6 months. So far, no battery replacement on either. This is one of the best inventions I have ever seen for this purpose. At Christmas time, my sons were visiting with their families and now they want they each want to buy a few. Allan, Roseville, CA

We had it for about 2 years when the battery went. then I broke it trying to replace then and in the end I had to buy a new one but the car and wall are still ok

I have had mine for a half-a-year now and I can say I've only replaced the battery once and right now it's reporting a 60% charge. I use the keyboard for hours-on-end daily. Highly recommended wireless keyboard if you're looking for long-lasting battery life. I also highly recommend the Logitech v470 mouse paired with this keyboard for its equally long-lasting battery life.

yes the battery in our unit is still going after a year. it should last longer than that.

I have mine for over a year now, and I just have to replace batteries after awhile. The unit even has a indicator for battery replacement, so you don't need to guess. It is still working, and I've zapped a giant rat the other day. Disgusting, but glad that thing is dead.

Mine is near 3 years old. Battery life is certainly shortened now (probably 10-12 minutes run time) but zero complaints about its performance. Gets used a few minutes every few days. I have been guilty of leaving it on charge a few days over the years. Certainly been a good value so far. Will likely built my own battery for it when the run time is unusable.

Well, unfortunately I'm not an avid gamer so I am not on it that often, but I have found that if you have it in sleep mode it does a very good job of retaining power. If I were to estimate, if you played it as much as the average owner, I would say you could get a guaranteed couple days out of it...I might even venture and say three days. Again thats just a guess.You might wanna poke around online and google some sites that will give you some good insight on the battery life. Hope I was able to help at least a little. Have fun and keep gaming! ;)

I've had it for a solid year and it's going strong. Just needs a new battery every now and again. Couple weeks to a month depending on you.

I've had mine's for 2 years. The battery had to be replaced but never any other problems. There are ways to change the settings. Check to make sure all buttons are aligned properly. Hope this helps.

Great comments! One more question: Anyone know the life of the battery? Do they age over time? I was going to get a spare battery but hate to have it age in the drawer - not used much if at all.

Hi! The battery lasts a ridiculously ling time! I used it nightly and used it for several cycles each night, and the battery lasted well over a month on a single charge

I've had mine for 2 years and it seems to be going strong. The battery charge doesn't last a long time (about 15 min or so) but that has always been the case.

So... I bought it last summer and I still didn't change the battery... I turn on the hammer for my son to fall asleep at night and when I go to bed, I turn it off... After all those months, the light is weaker but we forgot to turn off the light several times... So I would say, it lasts a long time... ;)

I don't believe I have had mine for a year yet and it no longer works. I believe it no longer holds a charge. A couple weeks ago I had to hold the on button down for it to work but now it doesn't even turn on. When it worked I liked it very much.

I have mine for about 8 months and I never turn it off unless it goes a little querky and doesn't work right. The battery is still working fine. It goes to "sleep" when not in use so that saves the battery. But it use 2 aa batteries so they don't cost much. It is a great little mouse. I use it on my nook tablet.

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

About a year and a half. I tried replacing the battery and it didn't work anymore after that.

We have been using ours since at least June of last year & the battery has not died yet. So they last a long time.
