It seems to last several hours and recharges fast. It is well worth the money....

I like the unit so much, I just bought some for my kids. But the battery is it's weakest point. It lasts maybe two hours. I plug mine into my computer or an AC charger when I am using it.

I do not know. After I opened package to try this aparatus I pulled out the antenna which broke instantly, then it landed into garbage.

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!

Not long at all. Maybe 30 min from a completely dead battery. Lasts a good while too.

The battery will last for 10 hours, but only when kept at a moderate volume. If you crank the volume up near max, the battery will last about 5 hours.

It actually has it's own built in battery. It lasts about 5-6 hours, which isn't too shabby.

Yes, About 3 hours if it's totally dead and about 2 and a half if you want to just charge it. The battery itself lasts for about 2-3 days for me without having to plug up on full.

Usually around 6-8 hours. I've never had the battery die on a full days use.

It usually last for 2 hours. You should be able to get a second Battery, even a bigger one.

About 4 hours per use. My last battery lasted about 3 years before I had to replace it.

I can't say I have ever measured the battery life but we are happy with it. As long as it was plugged in overnight, it usually makes it through the day, because we set it to suspend after 15 minutes of idle time and we rarely use it for more than 30 min straight. If I ever take it with me to work somewhere for an extended period, I just take the cord with me, it is pretty light.

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.

Battery - guess it depends on how much you use it. Sorry I can't be more specific

Mine has lasted for several years ... it has a built in rechargeable battery. I only charge it once a month or so.

Quite a while. I have owned this for well over a year now, and I have only replaced the batteries once.

Where did you hear that? Of course not. I use mine daily and it usually lasts for 2-3 days based on my reading, web surfing and emailing activity. I let the battery completely run down after I first charged it and it lasted almost 11 hours. On average I get at least 10 hours of active use on it, but I usually charge it every three days.

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.

About 6 - 8 hours if you run the battery all the way down. Which I dont recommend because your batteries wont last very long.
