What type of battery (AAA/AA, LiIon/NiCad/Ni-Mh) does it use? What is the mAh of the battery? Thank you.

It takes a AA battery, however, it doesn't seem to make any difference which MaH you use. I've tried every combination possibe and the best I've had is 1 to 4 hours of light. The avarage is about 2 hours. This is after the experience of 24 lights.

No, the batteries I ordered are AA not AAA? My device uses AA, so not sure what your uses. These AAs are the same size as non rechargeable, so. I assume the AAAs will be the same

My pack of AA purchased in January 2015 says 2014. I did not know NiMH goes bad 3 - 4 years. How did you find out this information? I have been using rechargeable batteries for years with no problems without NiMH. I just checked a different package of AAA purchased in January also & it says 2011. Gee your never too old to learn a valuable lesson. Thanks so much for informing me about this. Have a great day. VRLT

Hmm, I don't remember exactly as I replaced it a while ago. I do remember I checked the inscriptions on the batteries and the mAh was the same as the original batteries that came in the Neato. I want to say something like 3,400, or somewhere around there I believe.

Ditto on NiMH batts...I use 2100 mAh(set of 16..from my portable 5" lcd tv) for my S5 (AA batteries are one of the selling points for me).

I also use SONY NI-MH batteries and I haven't experienced any problems. I think what they meant to emphasize was to use NiMH type of rechargeable batteries. Here is what Olympus recommends: Ni-MH Quick Charger and Battery Set (B-90SU) http://www.olympusamerica.com/cpg_section/product.asp?product=1393&fl=5 "What is the difference between Nickel Cadmium (NiCad) and Nickel Metal Hydride (NIMH) batteries? Both NiCad and NiMH batteries are rechargeable. The main difference between the two is the fact that NIMH batteries offer higher energy densities than NiCads. In other words, pound for pound, NIMH delivers approximately 30% more capacity than its NiCad counterpart. " Reference: http://www.batterymart.com/c-battery-facts-faqs.html#lith-alk

NI-MH AAA 900mAh 1.2 volt led lenser batteries, they last a long time, I use the light every night and recharge them everyday. Trust me this is a great light.

We bought 2 pairs of NiMH rechargeable AA batteries, along with a charger. You can play almost 2 rounds on a charge. NiMH last longer than NiCad.

It is 1000mAh, since it is a AAA battery and not an AA, only AA are above 2000 I think

I'v used rechargeable batterys in mine for over 2 years NiMH Rechargeable Cell: AA Size, 1.2V 2600mAh from www.batteryspace.com/

It is a rechargeable Lithium battery. I don't remember the exact model. This is bitter sweet because it lasts a lot longer that AA or AAA batteries but when it runs down you have to charge it and you may not have access to a charger when it goes out. I am going to buy a spare battery and charge it as well before going on vacation.

I have to admit that I bought the batteries for a tool for size. Forgot to check capacity but it looks like at least 1800 mah. Things have happened which has kept me from using the batteries. Sorry can't be more help. Price is right though

Panasonic NiMH AAA Rechargeable Battery for Cordless Phones. I have added new batteries to it!

Short answer, yes. Long answer is NI-MH is a newer type of battery make up that can hold power longer than the older Ni-cd batteries.

If you look at Joel Miller's review, he has a video where he takes the product apart (and voids his warranty). He points out the battery is a Ni-Metal Hydride. Hope that helps your decision.

it says that a AAA battery will last about 7 hours... but i run with mine for an hour about 5 times a week and i only have to change the battery about once a month... hope this helps :)

I too use Tenergy Low Self Discharge Ni-MH D cell batteries in mine. They are expensive but work great. Eneloop AA batteries work with adapters, but they don't last very long.
