How long does the battery usually last?

This is my third cordless drill/driver and this battery lasts the longest of any I have had. I just finished a remodel of my basement and the battery lasted twice as long as another battery powered drill I have. Would recommend this tool highly. I used it to drive screws into 2x4's putting up drywall.

It lasts a good long time, depending on its usage and it doesn't lose its charge when it just sits there. Easy handling and not too heavy.I really love it for small household jobs and crafting. I wouldn't build a deck with it since it's only a 12 Volt and wouldn't go through heavy wood :-)

I use my drill at work. I use it through out the day and charge the battery overnight. Great drill for small to medium duty work.

depends on the usage. I use mine for drilling in plaster walls and then setting picture molly bolts and the like. I do not use my drill all the time. I generally only charge the drill once a month and it charges fast.

the battery life is not great. its ok for small jobs, I try to keep two batteries charged at all times.

It lasts quite a while. I don't use mine much but I have only put one set of batteries in.

Mine goes about 3 hours continuous use. It actually lasts longer than I expected!

It lasts a lot longer than I always think it will. I don't use it a lot--a little bit each day and I only have to plug it in a couple times a month.

My battery usually last 20-24 hours if fully charged. I stream music for around 4-5 hours a day and it lasts almost the entire work week without having to be charged.

From full charge, the battery typically will last 1-1.5 hours with continued usage.

Mine has lasted at least a couple of hours. I haven't needed it longer than that.

It's the standard battery, but it lasts a good amount of time. Unless you're going to be playing all day without a break, it should be plenty. Also, are the extended replacement batteries even out yet? I was under the impression those haven't been released yet (as of this writing).

I've had mine for 2 years and it seems to be going strong. The battery charge doesn't last a long time (about 15 min or so) but that has always been the case.

My battery last for a while. About 2-3 months, but I think it depends on how much it has to be used. The batteries are cheap at Walmart.

I don't typically use it for more than 3 hours or so at a time but it seems to hold a charge when not in use pretty well so I would say 6 hours or more would be fair.

I have charged the battery maybe 4 times now. I would say it lasts for a good 6-8 hours of on and being used time.

Most batteries last 4-5 days depending on how many hours you have them on each day.

I have had mine for about a month. I always forget to turn it off so I cannot tell you how long the battery lasts because I have not needed to recharge yet.

I've had one for over 5 years now that's still going. The battery life isn't quite what it used to be, but still over a day of pretty heavy use.

It actually has it's own built in battery. It lasts about 5-6 hours, which isn't too shabby.

Typically, battery can last up to 3 years, if kept on regular charge cycles. We recommend changing battery every two years.
