There are two important factors that will effect the playback time of your battery. The first one is the type of music that you are playing (music with a lot of bass will demand more power from your amplifier) The second factor is the music volume. High volume = high power consumption, low volume = low power consumption.
Playback time at half volume setting (half way from 0 to max.) +/- 8 hours.
At full volume setting (max. volume) up to 4 hours
