How long does the battery last if left on the thermo-hygrometer setting constantly?

Well, when I first bought mine, I forgot to turn it off about 2days and it drained my batt. The metronome acted funny when there is not enough juice power. I guess that because the battery included with purchased maybe to its dued date. With new battery, I have been more careful to turn it off when not use it. Still last for several months. The product is great. Recommended to friends & teachers. They all love it. :)

No, just current temperature. It does give lull, peak and average wind readings, which are reset when it's turned off. I doubt the batteries are meant for 24 hr. monitoring.

Let it cool for 20 minutes and then push the thermal reset button. It is an unlabeled button below the power switch on my unit. I have only activated it once...after two hours of continuous use on cedar logs up to 18 inches in diameter. Unit restarted after cool down but shutdown again after 30 minutes. I was quite worried at that point but it ran the next day and a dozen times subsequently without incident. It is a beast!

No, it has a timer, which has a maximum of two hours. Also the temperature is set by the user.

Battery life is about three hours on constantly . I know this because I used it this long while recently tracking a deer in the rain

This model automatically shuts itself off after so long of not being used but I don't know the exact amount of minutes

I leave ours out all year long. Just have to change the batteries once in awhile.

I use mine about an hour at a time and can easily use it for 6-7 times over about about a week before I hear the battery low notice.

Mine lasts around 3 months. I think this has a lot to do with me living in the desert and the humidity level being very low (less than 15% most of the year).

My thermometer stuck on the same temperature but I discovered that changing the battery fixed it. The battery does not last as long as claimed but is adequate. I have not used it to measure air temperature but it does respond slowly and I would think it would even be slower when trying to measure air temperature.

timewise i don't know as I use it constantly.it lasts for 18 uses before i have to charge it

Not long. You want the temperature change to be slow anyways so it wont chock the system

It varies. If you leave it on continuously - which we do sometimes - obviously the batteries won't last all that long. We live in a Coastal area and generally turn ours on if there appears to be threatening weather anywhere within 50 miles. If we are awakened at night by thunder and there is big thunderstorm going on, then we turn it on in those instances too. Doing it that way, the batteries last for months.

Yes the thermostat's batteries retain the its settings during power outages. These batteries run down in about 1 day unless external power is applied however. The power from the thermostat wiring must be supplemented from an external source. I ran an additional cable from the furnace for this purpose and the thermostat now operates an monitors temperature in my vacation house. I also have a "NEST" thermostat ($250 @ LOWES) as well which has more features and is able to run solely on the 2 existing thermostat wires in the wall.

I am not 100% sure, as I have not noticed when it actually turns off; however, I would say three minutes. It is long enough to allow you time between weighing different foods, but not so long as to drain the battery.

I've run mine for over 2 hours but never until the battery ran out. I hope that helps.

I'm guessing battery life would be dependent on adverse weather it's subjected to. If using within a garage where cold temperatures could creep in, I'd guess much lower than 3 years, maybe less than a year. But who knows. I'd imagine, though, that it shouldn't be so short that it's a hindrance.
