Have people had trouble with the Peregrine holding a charge?

No. I’ve had zero issues with mine. I’m not aware of any Teric-like issues with the Peregrine. The Peregrine is a much larger form factor than the Teric. I’d image it has a very different battery.

I have two, and they both seem good for holding a charge. The second I've only had for a month or so, but it's still at 3.97 volts after mostly idling for that month.

We have 2 in our household and no problems at all. My wife and I have Geo 2s for backup and it’s so much nicer to be able to recharge the unit instead of replacing the battery. As @Divin'Papaw said, the Teric is a different animal. Also, the Peregrine has been around long enough that it would be all over this board if there were any issues.

I charged mine around the 20th of November for a week long LoB. I did 18 dives in the LoB and another 3 dives since then. 2 months and 21 dives later (all about 1 hour long) my Peregrine's battery now reports 3.81V and the battery bar seems to be around ~2/3 full.

Two different Peregrines (wife's and daughter's) - 11 dives, each an hour long over 5 days, 1 hour SI between most, and battery was still 1/2 power.

I have had mine for about two years. It gets charged up between outings without a problem. Holds the charge for months without issue. I use a cheap desk light with a built induction charger. I save the USB charging plate that came with it for traveling.

There was someone about a year ago who was having a problem holding a charge on his. The general consensus was it needed service. You might look up that thread and see what was said. I am very pleased with mine.

We have two also, no issues over two years.

Just the opposite. The charge needs of mine are remarkable.
