How long does one charge last without charging it again? I guess if I leave on standby, how long will the charge last?

I'm not sure the longest, but I charged mine before leaving for a hike through Yosemite and the charge held through that 5 days. On the last day of the hike, I used it to charge my phone and some of my other electronics.

If you are asking how long your PHONE or other item will stay charged, after charging....then I charged my phone in the AM at camp, and didn't use it much and it still had prob 40% or so when I went to bed. So a normal day's charge for me. The device itself, I've been home 2 weeks, and it still had 1/2 the usage bar full when my husband borrowed it this morning.

With a full charge, I've charged my iphone 5 roughly two and a half times and my iPad from dead to full battery with a little juice left in the Anker. Not exactly sure how long a charge will last on standby, but I use it for trips so it will often go unused for a while and maintain a full charge. That being said, the unit itself charges pretty quickly. I'd say two hours or so. Hope that helps.

I've had mine for 2 years. It came charged so I've never charged it. I test it about every 2-3 months & it's still working; so I don't know that you'd need to charge it very often. Any research I've done indicated to charge it about once every 2 months with minimal use.

I usually plug it in at night when I get home from work. Although it doesn't take all night to charge, it is plugged in for about 10 to 12 hours. It will last more than a day of standby and hours of talking. The charging case is handy and can charge the earpiece on the run. Although I very rarely need to charge it during the day.

I usually have to charge mine for about 2 hours give or take for it to get a full charge. It takes a while for me to charge up my phone once I attach it to my phone i have to leave it on there for a bit.

I have left mine plugged in for 2 weeks or so and it still works good. I know it says not to charge over 8 hours, but I have and it has always worked for me. I keep it at my 2nd home and don't remember to unplug it from time to time, but, it does still work. Probably not the best for it but....

I charged it for 12 hrs and it was fully charged. after that initial charge it depends on how long I use it. I do not charge it after every use because I have always read that is not good for rechargeables. and I do not leave it plugged in either.

I keep it charged all the time, but I don't know how necessary that is or how long it will hold a charge when it is not on the charger. I do know that if I took it off the charger for any amount of time it would disappear and never be seen again (hence why I keep it on the charger).

Mine has been awesome. Charged it the first time and took it deer hunting and used it a lot without it going out or needing another charge. Have been using it here at the house to do chores in the evenings. I just charged it back up last weekend. I would comfortly say I have had it on for well over 6 hours on the initial charge. The last week here as been below zero and I have had to use it out working and it has not fadded at all. I'd ask for a replacement if at all possible.

I usually charge overnight and the charge will last for 3 or 4 hours, although I am guessing - I haven't really timed it.

I've had mine for months and only charged it the initial time. I don't recall how long it took. I only use it a couple of times a week but the charge has held.

Hello - I no longer use the device do to double billing - however when I used it - it would work betwen 18 -36 hours without charging it - I connnected it directly to the battery to keep it working without having to remove it and recharge it.

Do you mean how long does it take to charge? But the hours it last is until you unplug it.

Very short. I haven't timed it but I don't think I've gotten more than 3 hours standby. I don't travel without the charger.

Hey there Anthony.........you actually get about 7 full hours of talk time........The stand by time differs due to the amount of text messages you recieve. But I have left my headset off without charging for about two days and still had power left. I hope this helps you.

As far as I know, there is no true "stand-by" mode. The device is either on or off. I've been able to get a full day's usage when on and when off, it can probably could last more than a week's time. I use mine sparingly and find that, at the lower end of usage, I'm only charging it on a weekly basis. Now, I DO turn the device off whenever I'm not using it. So right before I head out, I turn it on (sometimes I forget and turn it on while out) and then I turn it off as soon as I'm back home or in an area that provides free WiFi. My wife uses hers much more often and has the device on during much of the day. By the end of the day, the device is need of charging. Hope this helps.

I never have run it down, talking. (I talk for over an hour) Off the charger it will stay charged for at least 2 days. As for how long it lasts before needing replacement, I do not know.

I've charged it once since purchace. Unsure as to length of charge as I turn it off and on frequently. Takes around 40 mins.to recharge.
