“Battery life real world? Any real world experiences with average battery life?”

• My batteries have been installed since mid June and still say fully charged. I found them on Amazon for a very decent price when I need to replace them. That's good news for me since most are outside in extreme heat.

• It depends on how you have your cameras set to record. If you are doing constant recording, batteries can only last a few days. However, If you only record when motion is detected and for only a certain amount of time, the batteries can last a couple months.

• As I wrote in my review, I have had the cameras running constantly for approximately 1 month so far, and the batteries still show 75% power left. So I'm figuring 4 months?

• Depends on the usage. If you set the schedule to not record all the time there is motion - i.e. Motion sensor active at night time or when you are on vacation and you don't accidentally leave the live view running when you are not watching then the batteries can last for months. I have one indoor camera that is working from June through December and still going because it is on a conservative schedule. However if you accidentally forget to pause the live view then the batteries will not last past a day or so. My front porch records the mailman everyday and the local cats and random wildlife and it lasted for 3 months before replacing the batteries.

• Actually, just like everything else, the better you laugh indicated is variable for each user depending on the amount of traffic and settings. I have one camera on a busy street side that had to have the batteries replaced in about three weeks. On the other cameras they've been running for over a month and still are in great shape.
