Clima Pest Guard battery life actually 14 hours?

I think a lot of those battery claims are based on some perfect lab setting, not real use outdoors. Mine lasted closer to 11 hours before the light got noticeably weaker. Still worked fine for the night but that marketing number is definitely a stretch.

I’ve been looking at this one for camping too, so thanks for the heads up on the battery. That difference adds up if you’re out for a few nights. Does it still work okay even when the light starts getting dimmer, or does it basically stop catching stuff?

My 10 hour experience matches yours. Those 14 hour claims are always tested in a warm room with a fresh charge, not on a cold campsite.

I’ve been using mine for a few weeks now and I’m getting pretty close to the 14 hours. I think it depends a lot on how often you run it on the higher setting or if you leave it outside in cooler weather.

Honestly, I’ve gotten a solid 12 hours out of mine on a few trips, but it does seem to drop off fast once it starts fading. Might just be how the battery behaves near the end. Still works fine for a full evening though.

I noticed mine lasted about 11 hours on the first charge, but after a few cycles it seems to hold a bit longer. Might just need to break the battery in a little.

I think 10 hours is still pretty decent for camping, honestly. I usually just charge it when I’m back at the car anyway, so it’s never been a big deal for me.

I think the 14 hour claim is probably under perfect lab conditions or something. I get closer to 11 or 12 hours out of mine, but it still works fine for a whole evening which is all I really need.

I get around 12 hours on mine, so yours might just need a couple charge cycles to settle in. Still does the job for me though.
