Anyone know how often you need to change the batteries?

Of course depending on how often you go by it, I've had to change them about every 8 weeks so far.

Ours died after about a month ..but we haven't replaced them yet since it barely gives off any light to begin with

I have had mine installed for over a year on a pool house. Lots of use during the summer. I have not had to change batteries yet.

My daughter got them in Dec and she just changed the batteries in Mar. Her and her friend would use them three times a week during those months.

We've used ours for almost two months without a battery change. We use our remote for 30 minutes or more once a week, so we've got 4-5 hours on our first set of batteries. It stands to be said that we only use it for a remote and not as a laser pointer or timer.

I change my batteries about every 3 or 4 months and they seem to be working fine. When I do change the batteries the "rocks" are still working but I don't want to chance having them go dead.I hope this helps. I am not sure but I think the instructions give you the "company" answer.

Well let see.... I don't remember every changing the batteries since I put them in place, so if you can see when I bought them, not since then. Thanks for reminding to change the batteries. I do test then so I know they still work. One has saved me a couple times.

I am not sure, since I have not had to replace the battery. I will tellyou this I have had it for over a year. However, it does not get used all the time.

I have not had to replace batteries more than once a year - and mine turns on and off once a day all year.

I've used it for practice and testing and never had to replace the battery. It's the same as any other watch...I'm guessing probably once a year for changing batteries and then just take it to a jewelry repair kiosk in the mall and have to them change the battery for $10 just like any other watch.

I have one that I've been using for almost three years and it's still going strong. Just change the batteries when it starts getting sluggish or acting weird and it'll come back to life.

We have had ours for about 4 months. Two people weighing themselves probably every other day and we have had to replace the batteries 4 to 5 times. This scale EATS batteries. Our previous one that we had for 3 years only required a battery change once.

Battery life is pretty good (I think). I don't actually keep a record of battery changes, but my impression is that I must change batteries about every 6 months. I carry an extra in my golf bag because unlike someone else said, there seems to be little warning that it is about to quit.

I have had mine for 3 months and have used it once or twice a day since then. I just changed the batteries in it today. So depending on you use I would say 2 to 3 months.

Haven't had any problems with batteries. Spec sheet says to change once per year and that seems reasonable.

The manual says to change the batteries at least once a year as a good safety measure, or at the same time as you change your clocks for daylight saving time. The alarm has a simple way to test it, and the manual recommends doing so once a week.

I changed the batteries on mine after more than a year of use; the stock batteries were just generic. I haven't changed them again after replacing it with good batteries over a year ago. I use mine about three to four times a week for several hours at a time. Just switch off when you're not using it.

I just change the batteries and don't bother with the other stuff. batteries last anywhere from 2 weeks to 3+ weeks depending on how much I use it.
