Sorry, I can't answer this question. I have my unit powered by the cigarette lighter that comes on with the ignition. With the USB/lighter adapter supply plugged into the unit, the unit automatically powers down a few seconds after the power goes off. If the USB is not plugged in, It will continue to record, so it does have a battery. I have run it a few minutes on battery, but I never timed it.

Battery life is extremely short, spend the extra money for a higher quality camera.

To clarify, I recorded 5 minutes of audio when I first turned on the recorder and left it running for four hours to kind of evaluate the battery strength and recording capacity. If you leave this recorder on for an extended period "trying" to record a conversation when you aren't present to turn off the recorder you will need to listen to the entire recording due to the fact that this is a regular recorder, not a voice activated recorder. Sorry I couldn't be more helpful.

It actually uses batteries. I opened it up, recorded about 10-30 min. and put it away for about 3 weeks. It needed new batteries.

It continuously records. It will stay powered on if you plug it into an accessory outlet that's powered even when the ignition is off. It loops back over previously recorded video. I keep mine on 24/7 so it records when I'm driving and records when my truck is parked. It also has a motion sensor that can be programmed to record when it's idle.

The remote power does not have to be on for the camera to continue recording, up to 5 minutes, (as long as the internal battery is charged). Once power is removed, the camera uses its internal battery to continue recording for the duration you choose in the settings, (1, 3, or 5 minutes).

I haven't recorded any longer than about 3.5 hours at a time, but that length was no problem for the battery. You'll want to put your phone in airplane mode though and turn off wifi, blue tooth, etc. so that iXY gets full resources and optimum battery usage. It sucks when the recording stops because the system was interrupted by something, and there's no indication from the app, it just cuts off in that case as if you had hit stop.

Depends on SD card size and records for 10 days with battery only. Indefinitely if plugged in.

No. The recorder has an on-off switch on one side. Once you turn it on, it will continue to record until it runs out of space, charge or you turn it off. It records in 4 hour chunks, so if you leave it running for 8 hours, for instance, you will get two 4 hour files.

About 45 minutes (there is no low resolution mode, it's always HD). Yes, the recording time is dependent on the battery.

The battery lasts about 1hr 1/2 to 2 hrs straight recording. You can not charge the battery while recording. I bought an extra battery. Sound quality is great with the camera. Worth the money I spent.

In my experience, the battery lasts only about 5 hours... so if you need to record 8 hours, buy 2 of them and swap them out after 4 to 5 hours. Note it should automatically create a new WAV file about every 2 hours. It also won't record while it's plugged into a USB port, so you can't charge it and record at the same time. :(

I have set it up with the battery pack for 4-5 days and that recorded approximately 9-12 hours of voice. Also, I set it while while we went on vacation to record what went on at our house. It didn't record anything but still had juice when we got back 10 days later. Hope this helps.

I think it has a 16-hour battery life, depending on use, and it can record up to 16 hours, supports 8 GB micro SD card. I have noticed that the battery life shortens after charging on an almost full battery, so only charge after the battery dies completely.

The answer to this question depends on the type of batteries you use. I use standard batteries, nothing fancy and if you record and play on this recorder for several hours a day for a week, (14 hours) it soon loses the charge.

It does have a battery that at best is good for about 2-3 hours. You can hook it to an AC adapter with Mini USB plug for use in the house. When powered up in a car, it automatically starts recording based on car motion. There are a couple of other options for recording as well. When I turn the car off, it stops recording.
