Battery life for me was 1 week in the beginning. My home base was on one end of the house. When my wife got pregnant the dogs started staying in the bedroom with her all the time, and battery life dropped to a few days. I turned off activity monitoring and that went back up to a week. I moved the home base to the exact center of my house, and now I get 2-3 weeks in between charges. When the pet is near the home base, it sleeps. If it goes outside the normal wireless range (100'), it checks in via gps and determines if it is in the home zone. If it is it goes back to sleep. If your pet is outside bluetooth range then it will use more battery life. Battery life for me was 1 week in the beginning. My home base was on one end of the house.

They claim they last 30 days but mine last less than 24 hours. It is a rechargeable battery. The company says the charger must stay in range of the dog or the tracker will always be searching thus using up the battery. That is what happens with mine because you see my dog is mobile. He has four legs and runs around. I guess I am supposed to follow him around plugging in the charger near him. The truth is I stopped using the worthless thing. $100 wasted.I wouldn't get it unless first you have Verizon cell service in your area. Then you must have a place, small I guess, where the charger is always in range of the dog. As far as I am concerned this is a poorly designed product.

The battery life is pretty terrible. They state that it can last up to 30 days, which is false advertisement in my opinion. For me, it lasts about 2-3 days, and my dog is near the dock station which is supposed to save battery life.

I don't know for sure. I believe it depends on how often you track your pet. We track my cat often throughout the day and it has been fine.

My dog has a few hundred acres to roam around freely and I know that robs the battery life. I have been re-charging about every 4 to 5 days. Has not been a real big problem though. She comes in at night and I charge it then.

My batteries like these (I have a few) have lasted well over a year. Average with daily use has been a year and half and more.

Pretty long. Months I would say. We got ours about 10 months ago and I think I have only replaced the batteries 2 or 3 times. Pretty good considering it is used almost every night.

It says on the box that the batteries last up to 55 hours. I would assume that is on the low setting. Other than that, I am not sure how long they would last on high. My daughter uses one of these for weekend camping trips and says they last a good while, but she has never paid attention to how long in hours.

I don't know how long the batteries are supposed to last, but this seems unusual for them to die weekly. I ran mine last year for approximately 4 hours per week and unit battery still worked this year.

Greetings. Theoretically speaking, the batteries can last 100-120 hours. But it will also be affected by the battery type and usage. Thanks for your question.

Batteries are lithium cell CX 2450 3V batteries. You get some with the candles and replacements for the first time. Depends on how you do them Using the timer, They might last a week or so. Outside in the cold maybe not that long. If you turn them off with the remote rather than having them turn themselves off you may get longer. I used them for my outdoor Halloween decorating and had to replace them at least once.

Two double A batteries, and they last about 30 hours. I walk an hour a day, and change the batteries once a month. Sorry it took me so long to get back to you.

I just plug the batteries in for around 8 hours and use em. It works well for me. I hope this helps. I had also purchased new batteries and I charged them overnight the first time. GOOD LUCK

I haven't timed them. I use it for about 10 or 15 minutes per day, and I have to change the batteries on average once a month.

Less than 4 hours for mine. The battery really does last a long time. I've had mine for several months and use them for up to 4 hours or more at a time, a couple of days a week. I have only had to charge them a couple of times so far. I am impressed with the battery in these.

The batteries with intermittent use, lasted about 4 1/2 to five months. It may have been a bit longer, but no more then 6 months. I don't have any complaints. The screen shows enough detail with a night light outside.

The batteries have a life of 3 to 5 years. This is based on the batteries being kept in a good state of charge as well as being used in a appropriate temperature. The biggest factor that will determine the live of a battery is the temppetature. As the temp. rises the life goes down.

I put new batteries in last year after I first installed the lights. I am still using the same batteries. Usually I leave mine on for about 2 hours at a time. I've probably used mine 6-7 times so far with the same batteries.

They last about a year. You can buy upgrades for it ( more run time). Batteries aren't covered. They are expected to be replaced.

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.
