My batteries like these (I have a few) have lasted well over a year. Average with daily use has been a year and half and more.

I think the battery life may depend on battery quality. I use Duracell ProCell batteries and they seem to last through many uses, with each use at a minimum of 5 minutes. I suggest maybe trying different batteries to see if that helps.

If you use heavy duty batteries, it is shorter. I only use alkaline batteries. It depends on how much you listen to it. My batteries last over 3 weeks at least. It depends on how much you use it. I don't listen to it all day, just when I go out. I hope this helps. I really don't keep up with how long the batteries last. I just keep an extra battery in my purse so I will always have a battery no matter what. It is well worth what I paid for it.

The first set of Duracell batteries in one light on our front porch (activated a few times a night on average) lasted for four years. I had to replace them earlier this year so i don't know how long these second set will last.

personally I feel Duracell are a better and long lasting battery, I have only had the Duracell charger and batteries about a month now and after a full charge I haven't had to recharge the batteries yet although I only have them in my tv remotes and game controllers

They have a manufacture date of 2012/04 stamped on them and the use before date printed on the battery is Mar 2021. It seems to me they say 10 years but mine aren't allowed to lay on the shelf that long. I like them. I use them. And I reorder them. I prefer the Duracell.

It has a menu switch for that. Alkaline is the default.I know, because I was trying to figure out why my rechargeable batteries were not charging in the radio, and learned that I had to go into the menu & make the switch.I haven't used it very much on battery, so I can't say much about how long they last, but if I remember correctly they lasted many hours when I used them before I got the A/C 5v USB power supply. More than a day.

These AA Duracell Procell's are Alkaline batteries. They are advertised as lasting longer that the regular alkaline Duracell Coppertop; but, by how much, I don't know. Lithium AA's will typically last over twice as long as alkaline AA's in the same electronics.

They last pretty long. Make sure you use quality batteries, like Duracell or Energizer. Don't forget to turn them off when not in use. I don't want to attempt to guesstimate how many hours, but we really don't have to change them often. If they start making funny noises, time to change batteries.

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: These batteries are the "exact" same types as their normal alkaline "c" cells. The difference is only in the name and these are sold commercially to contractors and tradesman. The mAh rating is 7800 mAh. As I have said before, get the Duracell Alkaline and the Duracell Procell spec sheets from Duracell and you will see they have the same specs.

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 use the Duracell AA batteries and I believe it takes 16 total. They last quite a while depending on usage.

My first battery lasted almost 4 months, and it was a generic alkaline battery. I used a Duracell Ultimate for 2nd battery, after two months it is working fine. If you use a lithium battery you should get more than 4 months.

I haven't had battery issues either. I used "normal" non-alkaline batteries and they lasted almost a year.

Alkaline D cells last for ages, several months for me when running 30-40 minutes daily (mostly FM, I only use Bluetooth on weekends). I switched to Sanyo Eneloop AA cells with D spacers earlier this year, and they still run 5-6 weeks. I swap 'em out when the meter shows one bar of three, don't wait for them to die, so they're probably good for another week.
