The battery life on this is great. Alerts usually within 2 miles of her safe zone. Which only happens when she's in the truck. Easy to charge on the go if need be, by not needing a charging base, just a micro USB cord. Very accurate in location. Like to test it and it's pretty quick to find her. James T. · whistle.com
