Anyone happen to know how much usage you can get out of an official PS3 headset in one session? I use mine for about 2-3hours and by the time I come to use it again it's totally empty and needs a full charge

I have been using it quite a lot with Borderlands and i seem to be well into the 8 hours plus before its starts bleeping.

I would say yeah its in that 2-3 hour range. My bluetooth is always either on my ear or its charging on the cradle. It usually never runs out of  juice on me, but sometimes you just get in a straight up gaming marathon with your buddies and when the gametime hits the 2 or 3 hour mark I start getting bleeps.

For some reason the battery life on the ps3 controller is really low too. It used to last maybe 10 or so hours, now I´m lucky to use it unplugged for 4. Not that its a huge deal considering I always have my controller plugged in anyway.

Hmm thanks, seems like I'm getting normal battery life then. Might try and have a massive marathon soon to see how long it does actually go for on a full charge lol

I can use it for 7+hours if it is fully charged.

it seems like people are getting up to 2 or 3 hours on it but I think that's weird because I get up at 8 or more hours on it as far as the ps3 controller goes people seem to be getting 2 to 3 hours on that as well but I'm getting 8 or more hours and I find that pretty strange so maybe sony ;should look into that...

Roughly 8 hours on mine.

Is this about the $99 headset? If so, mine used to get 3+ hours, but after sitting about a year with no use only gets around an hour on full charge. Luckily I have a the little PS3 bluetooth earpiece for a backup.
