Not bad however it is easy to forget to recharge. It usually lasts 1 day and 1/2 then dead. It does flash red to notify you to recharge.

I have had no issues with the battery. I use my Einstein collar 7 days a week, most days the battery is on for 15 hours, even after using the light feature the battery hasn't shown any sign of dieing out. I have run this collar side by side with other collars and have no doubt Einstein makes the best e- collars.

If I use it alot (actually hitting the charge/tone... Like when I first got it & was training more, it lasted all day & I had to charge it over night. Now that she knows it & I train less it usually lasts 2 days or so. But out of habit I try to charge it every night. That's seems to work well.

Used every day. Never tested how long it will go on one charge. Recharging it in every 3-4 days. Great unit!

Battery life, with minimal usage, is about 24hrs.I dont use mine for constsnt training like some may do so as long as its plugged in at night it'll work throughout the day.

Good question! So far we've enjoyed a minimum of 24+ hours on the collar and longer on the transmitter. We use the LED light often when we have Charlie (our pooch) out unleashed at night.

Battery life is good, we charge it every couple of weeks now. Once you get past the first training phase it lasts a lot longer. Also depends on if you use the light. I can't complain.

Battery life is pretty sufficient... Usually three hours of constant use before requiring charging.

I find the battery life to be really long, although my use of the keyboard is sporadic. I've been really pleased at how infrequently I have to recharge. Sorry I can't give you a more precise answer. One thing I try to remember to do is to power off when I'm not using the keyboard. Good luck!

yup,usin it right now. even double of battery life if usin the 6-cell currenty. does add a bit of weight, kinda like a normal laptop as opposed to ultrabook, but well worth it, 10 hour day with random music and movie streaming, easy twelve if just business.

The screen resolution is great. A full battery usually last me around 8 hours.

Hi.I have owned this laptop for a couple of months now and it is amazing. The average battery life I am getting while running wifi and having the brightness about 3/4 bright, I am getting 5 1/2 hours. With wifi off running regular programs like Word, Excel and Powerpoint, I am getting about 6-6/12 hours. Amazing battery life

Thanks very much for your response. I'm only getting about an hour or less of battery life. I'm very disappointed. Thanks again.

Personally I think the battery life is OK... Definitely not the best. I keep mine plugged in most of the time

Hello Laura,I primarily use it at work and have it on all day (7-8 hours). The battery life seems to be good...generally lasts all week. Hope this info helps :)Marsha

Well, unfortunately I'm not an avid gamer so I am not on it that often, but I have found that if you have it in sleep mode it does a very good job of retaining power. If I were to estimate, if you played it as much as the average owner, I would say you could get a guaranteed couple days out of it...I might even venture and say three days. Again thats just a guess.You might wanna poke around online and google some sites that will give you some good insight on the battery life. Hope I was able to help at least a little. Have fun and keep gaming! ;)

It´s no more than 4.5 hrs. I looked at the customers reviews before I buy it so I knew the battery life had not the best average. But I´m still very happy with my purchase, its a great laptop.

Battery life has been great so far. I've recently switched over NiMh rechargeables for all of my batteries. Haven't had to recharge them for about a month. The mouse has an auto shutoff feature after periods of inactivity.

Battery life is good. I used it to take notes in law school and needed to charge it maybe every four days.

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

It's like any other smartphone; it'l last days if you use it for nothing more than voice calls. If you use the GPS and 4G radios a lot, you'll drain it down in less than a day.My overall judgment of the battery life would be Decent - Good.

Depends very much on what you are running. Using WIFI and doing typical work activities such as email, web browsing, word, etc., I have seen over 9 hours. If you're watching a movie streamed via 4GLTE the battery life does suffer. I have not timed it, but 6 hours seems pretty close under those contitions.
