Title: Battery Life - Non-existent
Product review: From the Brother website..."Although the machine is not being used often, the Time and Date function requires power from the batteries continually to keep the Time and Date up to date. Therefore, by using the time and date function this will decrease the battery Life. If you use the machine only once a week and don't require the Time and Date function, you can remove the batteries from the machine to increase the battery life."In essence, if you want your batteries to survive at all you should remove them after every use. I went to their FAQs after the third set of batteries lasted only a few labels. I would receive the "BATTERY" warning when trying to print and it was nearly impossible to complete label.I expect a label maker to be like any other office appliance - easy, convenient, and reasonably reliable. It's not easy or convenient if I have to constantly remove and replace batteries. I'm highly disappointed.
