Did you know that you can check the total number of hours on your Spectra? This is fun if you’re curious to see how much time you’ve spent pumping! Here’s how to do it.
How to Check the Hours on Your Spectra
First, a quick note that this method was originally documented by Spectra Baby Australia on social media and their website, but they seem to have removed references to it, and Spectra doesn’t appear to officially endorse it. So this should be just for fun!
To check the number of hours that your Spectra S1 or S2 has been used, try doing the following:
- Power On
- Massage
- Cycle +
- Vacuum –
- Cycle –
- Vacuum +
- Massage
Then something like the following should be displayed on your Spectra.
How to Read the Results
The numbers listed in the middle are the hours. Don’t pay any attention to the numbers above Cycle and Vacuum. So in this example, it’s 278 hours.
Here’s another example with 616 hours:

I have the S1 and it reads different. I believe that mine says 10:10 and I haven’t pumped for 1,000 hours. But if you break it down by the first 10 being days and the second 10 being hours. That equals the same hours I’ve pumped. So 10:10 would equal 250 hours
Mine is showing up as cycle 3 2:32 200 vacuum… doesn’t seem right?
That means 232 hours. Does that not seem right?
Mine came up with 66!!! Sounds about right since starting back at school!
Mine is different in the cycle it says 01 in the middle it says 10:04 then 200 and before the battery symbol it says 48. I pump every 3 hours for the last 4 months so 10 hours definitely isn’t right.
That means 1,004! 🙂
Makes sense! I wonder what the 48 by the battery means.
Emily, that’s probably 1,004 hours!
