I made it two years, in brutal NM sun with even occasional rain. Even when had to, easy to replace.

Battery is supposed to last about 8 hours but can vary depending on volume, etc. I haven't really pushed it that far to see if it will last that long.

Average Battery Life is about 4 hours. The product description, (That MOST people seem to ignore), is "UP TO 5 Hours." 5 Hour Battery Life IS NOT Guaranteed. On a FULL charge, battery lasts 4 to 4.5 hours.

The battery doesn't last as long as the specs say it will, but then again, that is the case with all computers. I use quite a bit of CPU throughout the day, so without charging I would say it lasts 4 to 5 hours. Given the amount of CPU I'm using, I'm very please with that. If you are just using Microsoft Word and maybe 2 tabs of whatever browser, I would imagine the battery lasts much longer than 4-5 hours.

I am not sure of exactly how long but it seems to be about 2 hours or so. I have actually never timed it. This is an older laptop my kids use for games so that might be why the battery doesn't seem to last very long. Hope this helps! :)

I don't know exactly how long the battery lasts (it said up to four hours in the book) but I enjoy movies on it in the evening and I never have problems with the battery running down. I have worked from it in other areas (unplugged) and it certainly keeps me on long enough.

The most I have had battery life is a little over 2 hrs. If you charge it and don't use it right away it will die. But honestly for the money its a good price. Hope this helps.

If the battery is fully charged, it should last for about 6 hours. This is a rough guess based on my using it for about a week, a short time each day, before needing to recharge the battery.

battery life is good (Haven't done an exact measurement, but it seems like I recharge about every 3 or 4 days). It has an automatic sleep function that preserves the battery life. Full charge in about 2 hours.

I still average about 2-3 hours on mine. I've had in the neighborhood of 15 months. Been a great battery.

I do not have an exact time that the batteries last. I can tell you that I've used it numerous times and haven't really had any issues with battery life.

If I remember right, I believe the battery lasts 4 hours. I personally love mine. I Keep it in my purse/backpack and it has come in handy more than I can tell you about here. I always have it close by, but I especially like that it's made in the USA (Florida).

I have been amazed at how long the battery actually lasts. I use mine for Children's Church once a week on Sundays. I can go over a month before I have to charge it again.

That completely depends on the speed you are running it. If you only run it at full speed, it may last two hours on a charged battery. If you run at the lowest speed, it can last up to 15 hours or so.

Hi, I have not used it that long, but so far, the battery is holding up. Have not tested it on an all day run!Sorry I can't be of more help!

I've had it for about two years now, and the battery life on it is about two hours, give or take. It's definitely better than the one I replaced, though. I'm still a little disappointed that I have to practically keep my laptop plugged in just to be able to use it for longer periods. Hope this helps!

I don't have a definite answer for you- but I can say that we took it on a 5.5 hour flight using it on and off throughout the flight and the battery lasted the whole time.
