1088319
I had it last as long as 3.5 - 4 hours of continuous recording. And as long as 3+ days using off and on.

Oh, it can be re-used as many times as needed. I originally made this post before I received mine. It can record up to 60 minutes. If you need more than 60 minutes, simply plug it into your usb port and store the video file on your computer and then delete it off of the camera. Video files are in AVI format

Hi you have to go to setting and select dual recording to shoot continuously until the memory cards(A & B fill up. and keep your battery full. you will be able to record a video for 2 hours.hope this help.

The battery should last about 3 hours, That is if you don't keep it on for long periods at a time. I film about 15 min at a time and get right at 3 hours out of it.

It genuinely depends on how you use it. Lower quality video extends battery life. That being said I'm usually good for about 3 hours +/- .5 hours. I really do like this camera but I'm not a highly technical person. For my purposes (documentation) it is good enough.

I have never completely depleted the battery and have used it all day on a number of occasions with multiple recordings, both still and video. I get about 4 hours video with a 16 GB sd card.

While I have not timed how long it lasts, I can say that it runs a lot longer then the battery that came with my Canon video camera. I shot over three hours of video (over a total of ten hours) at a wedding before I replaced it with the original battery. Well worth the money.

I recorded once for 1 hr and left it on stand my for 2 days than recorded for another 45 minutes before it died. So I would assume around 3 days maybe or more.

I ran a test and timed it for almost 2 hours before depleting the battery charge. Using a 16GB Micro SD memory card it recorded about 10GB of VGA mode video during the test. If you use the original SD card that comes with the camera you will use up all the storage space before the battery runs down.

It lasts longer than any other camera I have ever used. I charge it to the full extent for a couple hours and it will last me for the month on regular use,(I use it a couple times each week). I have charged it and taken it on weekend trips as well where it is in constant use while I am sightseeing,(I won't shut it off for hours,) and when we get home from the trip it still has at LEAST one bar. I've realized I have never even had an occurrence where I had to question whether it was going to die or not. I have not however, used it to record video for long periods of time, so I have no idea on how it lasts for recording. Hope that helps! It lasts longer than any other camera I have ever used.

I haven't actually timed it but I guess it might depend on factors such as quality settings when you record using it. I will say I used it several times filming roads around my town and drove for hours and it didn't deplete my battery. Also I recently had taken it out to use it after it was in a drawer and months had gone by but it was still fully charged. Seriously I don't think you'll have any problems and also it's easy to charge using the USB either on your lap top or I use an Apple iPad charger on occasion. Just take off the cable for the iPad and plug the one for the MUVI into it. Faster! Hope I helped! I love the MUVI! I still am happy with the quality of the video.

This is color camera, and if you use 32 GB, it will last at least 72 hours. Enjoy :)

A few hours unless you have the video going the whole time. The video will drain the battery faster.

About 45 minutes (there is no low resolution mode, it's always HD). Yes, the recording time is dependent on the battery.

Hi John, if you take video, it will last for 2 to 4 hours, you can buy a spare battery at the same time. Feng Te

Depending on what resolution and frames per second you have it set for, the battery can last anywhere from 8 hours to 3 hours on a single charge. The camera battery is quick to charge though so high quality video is always an option.

From my experience using 2 of these units over 2-3 yrs. I find if you keep it clean it works quite well. I record about 30 hours. weekly.
