Hi. Is anyone experiencing a problem with their battery while using this? I have used this item for several months without any problems but it now seems to drain my iphone battery within a couple of hours. I thought it was my phone battery but as soon...

I have never had a problem and I've used mine for over a year. My iphone is 2 years old and I have found that I have to replace my battery chargers on occasion. I've had to replace 2 in two years. At first I thought it was the wall outlet, but no problem once my charger was changed. They are guaranteed for a year, so save your receipt if you decide to go that route. Good luck!

Yes, it has happened to me as well. It depends on what I am doing. Sometimes if I try and charge while playing certain games the battery still has the warning it is getting low. and then there are the times that it charges. I guess it depends on how much battery use is required for each app that is in use. I found it useful to shut it down and charge while not in use. It seems to charge a lot faster that way.

I had issues with my battery because I kept it charged when not in use. I found out you should NOT keep it charged; rather keep it in the vac until it dies and then recharge, this will extend the life of the battery. I bought a new battery and that solved my problem. Good luck.

I've had mine for quite a while. I love it and have had no problems. Keeps a charge for hours! Maybe you got a bad one.

Probably a bad battery. Ours can be off the charger for days and still have a power, not being used that whole time. As in, I had it for a nap time while I was outside and turn it off after nap (couple hours) but don't plug it in, it will still have charge a few days later. It has also lasted over night (audio only) not being plugged in.

The likely suspect is that the battery will no longer hold a full charge and depletes early. It's a cheap fix and if it doesn't help then there's something in the phone drawing the battery down.

I would say let it drain the battery completely and then try charging it again to full without using it in the meantime. This can happen with new electronics if you use it before the battery is charged all the way the first time. Work in tech and it happens with cell phones too (expensive mistake!)

I bought the same several months back and did not have any issues with it. Did you have 2 battery in yours when you encountered the issue? I only used mine with 2 batteries.

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.

Um. Sorry for reply back so late too you. Daniel. Um. I had that problem with my phone, and thought is was the Gorilla Gadgets battery. It pissed me off. But you might have too take the phone down and tell them that you need another head peace and a cord to get a better charge. In the mean try this. Take the battery out of your phone, and wait for 60 seconds then try the battery again. Let me know what happens. I will check back your reply.

I have the same problem and I can not figure out how to keep the battery from draining. I have to take the battery out after each use.

We have never had a problem with this. Maybe try to unplug and re start? We only use it on our iPhone 4 and it seems to work well. Sorry.

its great 4 me! Just make sure u turn it off by hand and dont leave it on standby. I did that once and it died. I've charged it a few times. I use it @ work only and my battery life was only 1 bar down after 7 hrs. All i do is listen to music i dont know if it drains faster doing other things. Hope this helps.

I only had this problem once & installed the Battery Doctor app. Seems to work very well -- it'll alert you to any apps that are unnecessarily running & allow you to shut them down with one tap. Haven't had a battery drain problem since.

Yes, I have. I mainly use it for my phone and I've noticed that it shuts off automatically and stops charging. Despite having (presumably) charged all night. I'm getting ready to return it.
