If you use ear buds or ear phones, I think you would have much more because you aren't driving the amplifier and speaker. I seem to charge mine every two or three days. I can listen through ear buds for two or three hours without going down very much. The problem is that if you use wireless, that will drop the batteries faster than if you just listened.

Is it okay to charge the icon or braille plus in its case? I ask this because I notice the unit gets a little warm. Thanks.
