Due to the limitations of lithium ion battery technology, battery capacity deterioration is expected. Please see the following guidance for the devices we provide with lithium batteries:
Recording Device - Apple iPad
Apple states::
'Your battery is designed to retain up to 80% of its original capacity at 1,000 complete charge cycles. The one-year warranty includes service coverage for a defective battery. If it is out of warranty, Apple offers a battery service. Prices and terms may vary.'
See this article for Apple guidance on how charging and using your iPad in ideal conditions can prolong you battery's lifespan.

Bluetooth Microphone
The microphone's initial battery life is around 6 hours recording time. This will deteriorate with use so we therefore recommend charging before each use. Charging time is around 1.5 hours
If you start to experience battery deterioration, microphones may able be to be purchased at a discounted rate by contacting IRIS Connect support.
