Two small 123 series batteries available at Walgreens or BuyRight or Home Depot. However I'm very disappointed in the flashlight the on off site switch isn't worth two notes doesn't completely shut off and drains my battery is down I have to unscrew the end And loosen it so the batteries do not make connection I found this out only after I use the light and pass the written 30 day return I am disappointed I recommend you return the light for your money back

Li-ion rechargeable 18650, i personally use 5000mAh batteries the higher the mAh rating the konger burn time you will get on a charge. Since I utilize this flashlight exclusively for scuba diving mostly at night the length of burn time is important to me. There are several packages of these batteries on amazon is you search for "18650 battery" . I hope my somewhat longwinded answer helps you. As a side note the light wirjs great to depths of 130' mine has roughly 50 dives to that deth. Make sure that you utilize silicone grease on the o-rings befire submerging the light.

I use 4 C-batteries. I use Tenergy rechargeable batteries. Use caution in placing the batteries in the flashlight. They have to be in the arrangement specified. This has been a very good flashlight. I use it literally everyday.

I'm not sure as I am still using the same batteries I installed in December. Note though the flashlight is not used 8 hours a day, 7 days a week. Hope this helps.

Purchase either EverReady or Duracell alkaline batteries [D]. If you use these batteries and they ever leak, you can send the flashlight back to MagLite and they will repair or replace it for free. I recently had to replace my 12 year old 3 cell MagLite, because I used cheapo batteries, and of course, they leaked and ruined the flashlight. It was the only time I didn't use EverReady. :-(

You will want to use the 18650 type batteries. I recommend the rechargeable kind. They last a good long time but after extended use (about 3 hours) they do dim considerably. I have the same flash light and am very pleased with it. As a Police Officer, I use it daily on the job.

I am not sure what you mean, but the battery is a 3.7 volt rechargable that could be recharged with any charger that works for 3.7 volt batteries. It is not a standard size battery, but I have 2 different flashlights, and the battery is exactly the same.

The other answer mention the rechargeable batteries. Those are good to get and will work but if ur not willing to wait for the shipping, go to Walgreens or Walmart n purchase a lithium photo battery. 2 will work for this flashlight.

Radio Shack Brand Ultralast #18500 Lithium Phosphate 3.2V Battery. I dont normally do this but i am suggesting you return that flashlight while u still can. I had purchased two and had to return one almost instantly after receiving it and the second is dead. No matter how many diff fully charged batteries i replace in it, it refuses to work. Trust me SEND IT BACK. Pelican makes a less exspensive dive light that works very well.

you can substitute the rechargeable batt with 2 #123 batteries ... that are about $10.00 each, but you MAY want to buy a different flashlight, mine lasted only 5 min before the switch broke.

With all due respect, if you do not know what a 18650 battery is, you should probably look for another flashlight that uses AA or AAA. There are a lot of possible dangers associated with this type of battery if you do not fully understand it. There is a 4 dollar flashlight on Amazon similar to this that uses a single AA battery (search for "cree flashlight" - FordEx Group is a popular one).

The Stinger led that I have is s/n 540478 and takes battery 75175. Look under the charger connection on the the flashlight, it will inform you of battery and bulb sizes, hope this was helpful.

Ken, You just bought a $60 flashlight - Why would you put cheap batteries in it? I did a lot of research before purchasing my first Li-Ion powered flashlight. You just don't know what you are getting with off-brand batteries. Stick with brands like Nitecore (I use these mostly), Olight, AW, Eagletec, Fenix. They are rated from about 2600mAh to 3400mAh - Higher number = Longer run time (and recharge time).

I have found that the 18650 3000mAH batteries work very well with it. You can get the inexpensive charger andd use them over and over again or charge up an extra set for when the ones in the flashlight drain down. The specific brand I use is UltraFire batteries.

Would suggest one go to the Streamlight Web Site, do a search for the model light you have and see what Streamlight suggest for a battery. This would also allow you to check the prices of the required battery between Streamlight and Amazon.

There are certain Cree flashlights & other Cree lights that use that type of battery. U just have to search which ones. Hope this helps you.
