Can anyone give an accurate estimate as to what the real world battery life is when played at close to full blast?

I have had the battery on, outside at a party for 8 hours. The volume was just shy of full blast and it still had a lot of juice the next day. So even if you have it up full blast you get quite a long, long time outta the battery!!! Love my Melody...

I use it connected to our outside TV for NFL Football. We start using it approximately @ 10 am (pregame), and don't unplug it until the last Sunday night game is over, and that is at full blast. I love my football and I like it loud! I would be comfortable saying 10 hrs++. As one of the others said, I LOVE MY MELODY. No problems so far....Tbone

I had the thing on a medium volume on Saturday, and it wasn't even on a full charge and it was still going when i brought the speaker inside 7-8 hours later. I use it all the time and have yet to use it for enough time for the battery to run out. Amazing battery life.

I use it every day 8+ hours even sometimes closer to 18 or so. I've had perfect game playing with it. Even over clocking. Nothing wrong with it.

hello Julie, when its fully charged it last me about 2 hours. But I have to admit I'm not a fan of this player.

For casual use including surfing, youtube, and writing, the battery lasts for upwards of 6-7 hours For hardcore gaming...likely an hour or less videos are somewhere inbetween... around 5-6 hours

When fully charged for playing games will last several hours. You can also use it whils unit is pluged in charging.

I'm getting a good 8 hours of continuous music playing time from one charge. The standby/off battery life last a long time it doesnt drain at all.

Well I have played it straight for about four hours without having to recharge it. I haven't drain the battery completely yet. I have also used it after in not being charged after two weeks. The battery last a long time in other words.

I have mine plugged in all of the time and use the gaming mode all of the time. If I do unplug in the gaming mode it will last 2 hours at the most depending what I am doing.

That's a good question!! It's kind of new and I moved to my new mac in a month or so. I didn't had chance to play a lot with it. But to be honest for the time I have used it I have never felt any concerns with battery . In worst case 5-6 hours at least and more depending on the settings you use.

If you are running it on gaming mode, it won't last an hour--even if you aren't actually gaming. It has gone 2 hours unplugged for me in balanced mode.

It depends on what a full day is. My battery only last a couple hours of non-constant shooting.

I can play mine 24/7 for about 2 to 3 days. And, it's probably capable of playing longer. I just getit on the charger before the warning starts going off. I really like it. Not meant for someone who is extremely rough on things. But, if taken care of, I can see this player lasting a very long time. Really like it!

Depends. High performance depletes the battery in a solid hour and a half while I was playing elder scrolls online. Should be a few hours if you're just browsing the Internet.

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'm just testing that myself. So far I have three hours on a full charge at full strenght

8 to 10 hours at damn near to full blast. I'm sure it could make it 12 if you keep the volume about halfway.
