How long does the lithium battery in a biometric F-Series hand reader usually last?

The lithium battery in a F-Series hand reader usually lasts 5 years.

The battery has nothing to do with if it loses power. 

The battery backup is for that and if a fully charged battery backup is on the reader then it should last about 3 hours once power goes out.
