    About the Battery Your WRIST NET™ watch is feature rich and has numerous functions. Because of this, the watch uses more battery power and must be recharged periodically, much like other devices such as cell phones or walkie-talkies. Your watch should function fully for at least 2 days on a single charge. The amount of time the battery lasts between charging sessions varies with a number of factors, including which watch face you are using, which channel the watch displays most of the time, the strength of the broadcast signal, and the amount of...
