How long does the conductive power last according to the manufacturers? Do the sheets etc. work indefinitely as long as they are plugged in?

I don't know a good answer to that. Once you get used to using the mat, you are not as aware of the current. I did not buy the sheets. I would assume the little "wires" in the fabric would get brittle or soft with use and washing. I think the mat would be the longer lasting. I do not use the cover with it. It doesn't bother me to be in contact with the mat. I like it, and I think the numbness and tingling in my fingers and toes/hands and feet has improved some in the months I've been sleeping with my feet/calves on it. The mat is very similar to a mouse pad in texture, thickness and flexibility. I don't know a good answer to that. Once you get used to using the mat, you are not as aware of the current.

I think it's a complete waste of money mainly because it too expensive - walk outside barefoot - buy shoes that directly contact the ground are dramatically better

I bought the mat which has the cover you can use on it. From appearances to me, the mat cover seems to be the same fabric as the sheets. For that to continue to be conductive, the cover needs to be laundered regularly to wash away soil and body oils that would block the conductivity of the silver threads that run through it. Of course, like any fabric, it will wear out eventually with regular use. How long it will last I cannot say. That would depend on a lot of variables. The Earthing website is wonderful about answering any questions promptly, so I would definitely contact them for any questions you may have about their products.

The sheets lose conductivity within months, even if you follow all of the care instructions. I've had a mat for a couple of years now, it still works.

Hi Jasmine, These solar chargers can last forever depending on how well you take care of it. You can expect close to 10 years of efficient performance but with our 100% customer satisfaction if you ever have any problems with possible internal wiring issues, or some possible damage of the panels, we guarantee to fix the situation for you. Hope this answers your question.

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.

I've had my Earthing products for 3 years now with no problems. I wash the sheet with Tide -- it didn't occur to me to use anything else. I don't overload the washing machine because I don't want any pulling on the sheet's "wiring."

Hi I think all three of the others have answered this very well. Christopher was a little more thorough. I use these cords for Christmas decorations. My son paints individual items and then I light them up with these cords. I use them inside. I use them for the months of November and December. They are doing very well and I would highly recommend them. One other thing is I keep them on all the time. I love my Christmas lights during the Holiday season, and so I keep them on all the time. I think as long as they are not abused they would last forever. Hope this helps.

About 48 hrs. My Mother and daughter kept theirs on so they could keep up with each other. When they tried turning them off to save battery power, that seemed to eat up the battery life even faster. They are not using them at all now. It goes through batteries too fast and I still have not been able to find a charger that fits the adapter plug on the side.

They last quite a while. I mainly use them for my son's wireless remote for his Xbox 360, he plays everyday, somedays he plays allday and on average we usually have to recharge them every 3-4 months. I found them to be better than an OEM battery we've had.

I use them alot , most of the day in fact, and I can get around 5 hours (talking on Skype and listening to Youtube videos) of use out of them before they need recharged. They take about a hour to recharge ( I just use them with the charging cord plugged in)

I was actually interested in the answer to this as well. I've plugged a set into my 25,600mAh Anker power pack and they're still going strong after 36 hours with 30-40% battery left.

That would be up to you, you said they work , how long do they stay on? You should be at least get a few hours out of them we use several of these at our shop and have had a variety of problems that being said , they are the best solution we have found for the price, I left one charging overnight and it finally turned green .

You are NOT going to believe me, when I tell you the answer but here goes: almost forever! I'm not kidding! A guy at the Verizon store suggested these and said they had an excellent battery life, so I decided to buy them. I've owned 2 pair for about 3-4 years and to date, I must have charged them at most, 6-8 times. If I didn't know any better, I would say the battery in these are nuclear! I'm not joking!

I've had mine about 4 years and am still using them. they seem to not hold charges as long. And I am thinking about replacing them. I use mine a lot as I have 3 appliances, 2 saws and a weed trimmer. I keep them plugged in all week and use them pretty heavy most weekends.

They connect to any computer /media player with a standard headphone jack, and charge through a usb port. I'm not sure how long the batteries last but I've used them for hours upon hours without having to chArge. Easily over 8 hours use. There's an indicator light that's blue when charged, turns purple when batteries are getting low and red when it needs to be charged. they can also run while charging.

Mine have lasted and are one of the best things I ever bought. I have one pair for my mattress cover and one pair for my fitted sheets.

I have mine pluged in to the wall at all times. When the monitor is fully charged it will last 6 hours.

I've kept them on both my dogs for 12 hours and they still work well. I always plug them in at night so I'm not sure how long they last. I know that even when they are immersed in water, my dogs swim, they still hold the charge.

I've been running five for six plus months 24/7. No problems. Just keep them plugged in and they go.
