How long do the batteries last?

Yeah about a year, but the C batteries are kinda expensive. I may use the C battery converters and use double A rechargeable batteries.

I have not had to change batteries yet. So I cannot answer your question. But consider it uses 3 C batteries and goes off after 20 sec (option: 60 sec) each time it is activated, it can last a long time. Specification says 1 year with normal use with setting of 20 sec each light up.

The first set of Duracell batteries in one light on our front porch (activated a few times a night on average) lasted for four years. I had to replace them earlier this year so i don't know how long these second set will last.

The rechargeable batteries last about 8 hours of continuous play. They are great for travel. Regular AA batteries might last 3-4 hrs of continuous play.

I've had them a month and have used them for hours at a time and they are still working. I didn't think they were gonna last this long to be honest. They take watch batteries in case you were wondering.

I can't give you exact hours but I can tell you that my sons use their players at campouts for many hours and I have never seen them go off. I have never used mine for an extended time on battery.

I cannot answer that fully. I have not left them on long enough for them to lose charge. I have the manual at home. So I would guestimate 15 hrs? Maybe more, maybe less. Best bet is the manual, what it says, but if you don'g actively correct them for a long period I would think it would hold charge a little longer

It' hard to say but I have had them last 24 hours on standby. With use and time as with all batteries it seems they develop memory and lose their capability to maintain a charge over a long period of time. I carry two batteries with me and switch them. From the beginning of my day until about 4 o'clock I usually have to change batteries or put it on charge.

About a half hour. Then the charge lasts about 10 minutes. Purchase multiple batteries!

Really couldn't say - I use these infrequently. I will use them nightly for a week or two, then turn them off. Only use them on dark winter evenings. Still using the batteries from last year, therefore. So - I will hazard a guess that they last a long time, maybe several months if not used daily.

The batteries so far have lasted for 7 to 8 showers. Not long ones and I did not change the batteries yet since I bought it.

I don't have exact time but I have used mine several hours now and still using original batteries.

I use the light for 1 to 2 hers at a time during orchestra rehearsals 1 night per week and church services on Sunday mornings. 1 set of batteries has lasted for about 3 months and I just had to replace them. I think the info that came with the light said they should last about 10 hours of continuous use.

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.

Sorry! I have no idea. I haven't had mine long enough to replace the batteries.

Can't give exact time but they last pretty good time. They use reg AAA batterys.

We have been using ours since at least June of last year & the battery has not died yet. So they last a long time.
