My standard Hero 3+ Black does around 2 hours and with the battery BacPac it does around 4 hours. This is in Full 1080 60FPS. You may get slightly better performance with lower resolution or frame rate. My 3 Silver lasts slightly longer, maybe 2 1/2 hours on 1080 30FPS but the quality is slightly lower (still good enough for recording rides).
Haven't tested them yet in sub zero temperatures but will probably drop a few mins. They both take a couple of hours to recharge.

2-3 hours in HD on the new models with the remote off. More like 2 when skiing. Most of it becomes about juggling and learning to turn on and off. good for the fun moments you know are ahead but maybe not for the times where something unexpected happens
