Do batteries go dead in handset with no notice? How many hours will the handset batteries last in live "talk-time" conversations (I see some new phones advertising 6-8 hours) before needing to be recharged; and how long will a handset last on standby (at the bedside but not being used, talked on, receiving calls, or any other activities) before having to go back into the base for recharging. Some of the new phones are advertising 8-11 DAYS!
But I must say, this is a very very good deal!

I tend to have long ( three hour) conference calls. In use,
my battery begins beeping at about 3.5 hours. I just move to another handset. Not actively in use, I would say the charge lasts several days. You also can see an icon that indicates battery power on each handset.

I never intentionally tested its life of the battery off the base, but having made a few calls and received some most days they have lasted easily over 3 days. If the phone is not being use or not receiving any calls I could see it lasting easily twice the amount of time. 
As for a busy day talking on the phone for say 3+ hours, for which I have had a couple of days like that the phone has lasted left off the base until the next day. 
I would question why 8-11 days for a phone to be left off base without ringing, I cant see how anyone would not use or expect one call in that period unless they are on vacation so that test results seems pointless. Even if you go on vacation and leave the phone off base for 2 weeks the main phone will still work as that will be plugged into the power socket and will be taking voice messages.

I noticed the battery life is about 5 days before the battery goes dead. Could be a little longer. I did not notice any sounds coming from the phone when it was dying. As I write this, my battery in one of the phones was dead and put on the cradle. With hardly any charge, took off the charger and it just tells you the battery is just about dead. There are no lights blinking or any sounds.

I have left it off for a couple of days with no problem, but have not tried anything longer than that.
