Goes fast. Not sure about batteries. My truck would not make left turns. So I sent the truck back for a refund.

I never actually timed the runningI use it outdoors for my home day care and the kids have a good time and the bubbles last long beyond their interest. That works for me.Perhaps up to 45 minutes to 1 hour.

ddepending on how much you use it and whats plunged in. You can order a a/c adapter for it that's what I did, the batters only last a few days with minimal use.

Hey bro...i just got mine yesterday and I've used it for so far 3 to 4 hours...and it works well...I'll make sure I put it up on exactly how many hours the batteries will last...

I've had it last as long as 1-1/2 hours on a continuous run. Pretty fast charge via mini USB, too.

I've used batterities and when I run it all night (12 hrs) it normally lasts 5-6 days

I have a fairly large yard and can do all my trimming on one battery and a small portion of the second batter. I would say that each fully charged battery lasts about 30 minutes. (just a guess)

It goes fast!! The only problem is the battery life... max 10 min if you want it please buy a extended battery

I'd say mine lasts just under 3 hours at the lowest power levels. The battery is easy to remove, so you can always buy a second battery to double your life.

I'm still using the batteries that came with my chainsaw, my tree-trimmer and my weedeater. I made sure to buy items that all ran on the same batteries. I think my oldest battery is 3-4 yrs old. I did lose one because I dropped it on concrete. I am just now reaching the point where I need to replace my batteries. I use them year-round. I keep the charging all the time so on evenings or weekends I always have batteries to go. My batteries still work but it seems they don't hold a charge as long. So I would say 3 to 4 years.

At least 20 minutes. It seems Greenworks has figured out the battery thing. I had a Roybi 18V and its run time was 10 - 15 minutes. This runs much stronger and longer.

It should last about 3 - 4 hours in low, but in the higher speed it will only last about 1.5 - 2 hours. We just make sure we charge it after every use and haven't seen a need for a second battery.

Depends on usage....my father used his on an average of 4 hrs a day and it would last about 5 weeks with good battery's.

Not sure about batter life, Duracell, alkaline, etc. Haven't had mine 4 months yet. You may want to email the company. They are friendly and respond very quickly.

Hello, the battery lasts depending which batterry you use, if you use alkaline, lasts more. With full load, works good, only you have to shake it a bit with your hand. I usually use it with sugar and flour. I have not had any problem with that. I recommend it to you.

It depends on what you mean by 'lasting long'. If you expect them to last a month or so that is going to greatly depend on whether you get hot weather or how much mA the GPS is going to require. If all you need is to them to run a day or so, these should be fine you'll just have to regularly swap out the batteries, but if you find that your device runs out of power before the day is over there's a few things you'll want to consider. Getting a smart charger with 'negative delta v', overheat protection, discharge/refresh with a display letting you know the capacity of the battery is the best because you will figure out how much mA your device needs and how long it will last with the batteries you plan to put into it. They can be expensive like the Maha or LaCrosse brands, but they will give you the info you need to determine if you need to get higher mA batteries or the batteries you have are no good. You can initially get a sense of how long your device will run for if you use alkalines. If they last a week, these rechargeables should be fine, but that also greatly depends on how much voltage your device needs to function properly and how many batteries you need. 1.2 volts for a 6 AA battery pack might not work correctly and you'll have to check to see if your device will accept rechargeables. If it does that's a bonus, because then you can use NiMHs and you'll be just fine. It'll also be easy to figure out how long your batteries will last and then you can find out when you need to switch the batteries out before they become dead. There's also NiMH car rechargeable battery chargers with the above i mentioned to keep your batteries charged.

Speed is slow witch is what you want with the cleaning products you will use with this. Power is good, but is dependent upon the age of the batteries and how their charge memory is. Batters are easy to replace at home depot. I have this product and the original black and decker machine. The BDhas new batteries and a new charger. Work great. Remember, you don't want high speed here.
