Using it just for family pictures and shutting it down when not actually shooting still good after 2 - 3 months

Video and flash both use a lot of battery, but with pictures only and review of them, the battery lasts literally weeks between charges. I shoot a lot of pictures, and the only time the battery is a consideration is when I use the video.

We haven't had a lot of luck, seemed to last 2 hours when having GPS on and taking pictures. We purchased a 2 pack of batteries on amazon though and just put them in the camera case, no issues now!

If the battery is fully charged, it should last for about 6 hours. This is a rough guess based on my using it for about a week, a short time each day, before needing to recharge the battery.

I'm not quite sue--I've never used it long enough to drain a charge. My guess would be several hours. Sorry I can't be more helpful.

You can go quite awhile once charged...I think at least a month if not more. You did remind me to check mine though since it has been awhile since I charged it! ;)I've never kept it plugged in though...only plugged in overnight to charge it up and it holds a charge for a good duration of time!

The battery lasts around 3-4 hours fully charged. I found it very useful to keep it plugged in while using it at home.

It can take up to 24 hrs to charge. Wait a day and if it still shows low the battery is defective.

I would guess a little longer but how much I have no idea. Its not a deep cycle battery so draining it and then recharging it over and over will basically kill it fairly fast. You really need a deep cycle battery for that kind of application

The first charge should be 14 hours to give your battery full capacity charge. Then, one 3 hour charge will last for about 36 hours, or you could charge it every night like smartphones.

Depending on how much time you use up while in use. I think the charge is set for 45 minutes when fully charged. If you read the instructions it will tell you to let it run down now and then to keep the battery in good shape. I sent my sister-in law one of these and she uses hers and lets it set off the charger for a few day's after a short use. So, depending how long a time you use it each time is my answer. I enjoy mine very much and have had it about a year. Good Luck, Ruth Young

You can charge it in about 2 or 3 hours. I found a trick that if you make sure it stays cool, it will charge quicker and discharge slower. Not a bad battery.

it lasts as long as you dont use it. the battery does not lose its charge once it is charged

The charger continues to charge as long as the battery is connected. You should not let it charge more than 5-6 hours or it will overcharge and ruin the battery.

I would leave the battery plugged in for a full 24 hours before first using it. I thought it was charged enough when I first put mine together to try mowing my front yard and I didn't get very far before it died. I charged it for 24 hours and the next evening it worked great and stayed charged for both my front and back yards.

It depends on how low the battery level is. If you are charging it from 0 then it will take about 1.5-2 hours.

If your battery is completely dead,charge it 6 hours.I found this to be adaquate.Problem is at full charge battery will only last 20-30 minutes.

If you charge it for 12 hours it will hold a charge for 3 months but its best to charge it every 3 month 2 to 3 hours . I hope I answered your question good luck .

It charges in as little as 20 minutes for light usage. It might take an hour or two for a full charge. I rarely run out of battery in an eight hour day but if I have constant usage, I might need to charge it after five or six hours. I just put it on my charger during my lunch hour and it is good for the rest of the day. I always leave it on the charger overnight and it normally lasts and eight hour day with no other charging necessary.
