How long does the glow last/how long is the battery life?

I'm not sure. Ours have still not run out of juice but we use them infrequently. There are two CR3032 batteries inside so they should last a long time. To replace the batteries you will need a jeweler's screwdriver. You can buy a 10 or 20 pack of CR3032s for a very reasonable price on amazon or a battery website. Don't pay more than $.50 each.

Well when I got it, I was wicked mad when after 2 days, it turned off and wouldn't turn back on.

It is a very, very faint illumination. If you are sure that it is getting enough sunlight to recharge it during the day, then you should be able to see a light glow at night for a few hours. You do have to look very close. It is a cool feature but not the best one functionally. :D

When off, the color is the vanilla as you see in the picture. When on, they glow and flicker. I don't think the batteries last very long in them.

Let me say befor my answer that this gadget is really awesome ...IT IS battery operated.....how long does it last?. It depends on the way you use it,I do not keep it going for long periods,and still works fine.but if you keep it on for several nights it will go on for several days,as for the batteries ,it needs 3 small rounded ones.TAREK

A few hours. I have yet to read of anyone who has gotten more light. It works long on first use only, then very short battery life.

Very good. I suppose it depends on usage, but mine lasts for months and it's easy to put in a new battery. It takes years to wear a trackball mouse out.

I don't know 'exactly' how long it lasts but I'm real pleased. I use both the rechargeable 18650 3.7v battery and 3 AAA batteries 4.5v. 3 AAA's are a bit brighter. Both types seem to last a month or more of frequent use. I just got back from a 2 month vacation and it did not run down while is was out of the country. Very bright and long lasting. That's my opinion.

shorter than what you've been told so far. I've been through at least 8 sets of batteries since I bought the light. I keep a good supply on hand (buy them from Prime). I use the light mostly for keeping track of my dogs when I let them out at night, so each use probably averages 5 mins. I might get 10 of those sessions before the light goes completely dim. That would be 50 mins. When it goes dim, it happens very fast. So, this light has pros and cons. I really like the tremendous brightness that it puts out, but wish the batteries would last significantly longer.

It will depend of how you are using it, for normal use like internet browsing it last up to 6 hours, but for gaming or video I could experience 4 hours at full brightness. Overall the battery life it's very very good

Not really sure about the actual "recharge time". The balls glow via something similar to 'day glow paint', so I'm guessing they'll start glow again from 5 to 20 minutes after re exposure to light. But the longer they are exposed, the brighter and longer they will glow--so, an hour or two works best for me.

I have used it for two weeks, more or less and the batteries are still giving me full luminosity, they last a lot, because I ride two and three hours. You will be happy with it. Me I love mine it is a worthy buying.

My experience is that the batteries last approx. 4-5 hours. I use mine for work and I love it. Problem is I found the exact light at a boot store a month after my purchase from Amazon for only $4.95!!!!!

The battery life is pretty decent. You can probably get about 2 hours or more depending on if it is heavy use or light. The battery once it is completely discharged takes about 3 hours. Youll know it is fully charged because the blue light will show a full glow instead of just half. The battery has a built in feature to keep it from overcharging so you can leave it on the charging base when not in use. I love it because it is powerful enough to get a good clean without all the cords.

The main led light on the corner will glow blue while on, red while charging, and purple while on and charging. When just charging it will turn off completely when full or to blue when done charging while on. I believe it will last aprox 10 hours?

I'm not sure how long the battery last. I used it at home in a semi lit room and it worked fine but at school in a lit room I couldn't see anything...I had to download a free app that projected out on my phone. The app I used is called slide shark

i think that really depends on the quality of the battery you use. i use the amazon brand "AA" batteries and have used the lite with both down and up lights on for about 5 hours consecutive use and they did start to dim slightly. but as i find you don't really need more time than that for an evening on the patio. you need to keep in mind this a temporary lite source for your patio table and is not meant for long burn duration's. with that in mind, it's a good investment for the money. it's also good to have around in case of a power outage!!

Not sure if it lasts 24 hours, since I use it for an hour at a time, but I usually only have to charge it every other week or so. It does gradually dim, but in my experience it stays bright for most of the two weeks, then gradually dims just at the very end until it dies. Incredibly reliable light.
