Veira terminal and hardware

How long does the Veira terminal battery last?

Updated June 2026

Short answer

The terminal runs on a removable 2600 mAh battery built to last a full trading day on a single charge. Because the battery is hot-swappable, a busy shop can keep a spare charged and switch it mid-shift without shutting down.

More detail

For most shops a single charge comfortably covers a normal day at the counter. A higher-capacity battery is available if you trade long hours or run a very high volume.

The hot-swap design means you are never stuck waiting for the terminal to charge before you can sell again. Keep one battery in the terminal and one on charge, and you effectively never run out.
