If you use GN Ellipse in between, charging takes longer. A fully charged battery provides up to 12 hours of talktime. With an extra battery placed on the other side of the base unit, it is possible to double the talktime up to 24 hours. If battery power gets too low, GN Ellipse lets you know by sending a series of signals every 20 seconds in your headset (see Technical Data).
