Can these units run on rechargeable AA batteries?

I use the rechargeable Eneloop AA batteries in everything in my home & have no problems with them. They work fine in my detectors that take AA size.

Bad idea. Rechargeable batteries would have to be swapped out/ recharged frequently. The device will operate much more reliably with alkaline or lithium AA cells.

Yes for the rechargeable batteries but it can run on regular AA batteries as well

They will work with regular AAA batteries. I have also used rechargable AAAs, but found out that I had to scrape a bit of the paper off of the one making contact with the prong on the radio to make them work. You will still have to take this type battery out and put in a charger to charge.

AA batteries are too small for these units am still got the batteries came when unit just keep it charged I think they will last for a while, I'm sure you can buy these !either rechargeable or nonrechargeable but light works very well very bright

Sorry, we have only used AA rechargeables in this unit. Not sure if Li-ion would work in this.

NO. Only use AA batteries. Do not use rechargeable because they do not hold on the right charge for long. I did install a female power jack. This wayI could use an adjustable volt, 1.5v to 12v, DC wall power supply. I hope this helps. Have fun with it. RobS...

No they do not run on batteries. I had to return our unit because I thought this was something that plugged into the wall on one end, while being able to walk around with the other...but that is not the case. both units require outlets exclusively.

Yes. For my opinion, it is better to use rechargeable AA than regular AA battery. It last longer than regular batteries.

Yep, you can use AA batteries (4). Will last a few days with moderate usage. We use these on our ATV's and this feature has saved me a couple of times.

Yes. The radio will work great with regular alkaline AA batteries and has a much longer run time with the alkaline versus the rechargeable. Great radios!!!

No, it won't. You can use only 1.2-1.5V AA rechargeable or non-rechargeable batteries.

Yes. AA batteries. Mine even came with a set of Energizer Ultimate Lithium. It can accept lithium, rechargeable, or alkaline. Just make sure you set it to the type you're using.

No, you supply your own 4 AA batteries. You could still use your own rechargeable batteries.

I've used only alkaline batteries in them. But you can use any type of AA batteries. I like them a lot.

They require an electric connection. I believe they MAY be able to run off a heavy duty 12 volt rechargeable battery, but I have not done it that way.

Yes. I use the rechargeable batteries as the primary power source and carry some AAs as a backup.
