Used to be 3 weeks when new. Same holds for the shaver and the toothbrush, last device I needed to replace the battery was very old siemens phone, still using ni-mh battery and that was 12 years ago, so a little care for the batteries goes a long way.
Sorry - there was an omission in my previous post which rather changes the meaning. I meant to say that a 3-4 year old Lithium battery will typically have lost around a third of its original capacity. I left out the word "lost". Now corrected.
