Can you use lithium AA batteries?

I'm pretty sure you can. I read several reviews about how much it used battery power so I chose the best rechargeable batteries that were offered. I forget what they're called but they are white and blue. The charger is quite compact. I keep it in the camera case. I think they will recharge in a few hours. Certainly not as long as overnight or anything. I hope this helps.

The original batteries did not last long. I bought a 4 pack of Lithium batteries and the charger.

Regular Lithium Ion batteries might be ok, but I would check with Canon first; they don't mention those in their manual and definitely do not use rechargeable Lithium ion batteries in this camera unless Canon says it's ok to do so. I was looking at a Nikon camera where they specifically mentioned that you can use regular Lithium ion batteries but not rechargeable Lithium ion batteries.

Yes. I think that is the only kind you can use. I tried regular batteries (non-lithium) and it would not work.

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

Yes, you can use either Lithium Ion or Ni-Cd batteries. You will need to be sure to use either a Lithium Ion or Multi Chemistry battery charger however.

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

Curious thing about lithium batteries is that a single cell produces about 3.6 volts so there is really no way for a lithium battery to produce 1 and 1/2 volts like an alkaline battery. So to answer your question, Yes you can use this battery to replace the other lithium battery because it produces the same voltage and is the same size physically.

All I have ever used are lithium batteries. I have had the same lithium batteries for more than five years and no issues.

Yes, you can use either Lithium-Ion Battery (PC18BL, PC18BLX or PC18BLEX) or Ni-Cd Battery (PC18B). You just need to be sure to use the correct charger. Charger PCXMVC is the best choice as it is dual-chemistry.

No, you can only use the windfire rechargeable batteries they are much larger than AA's.

Yes, there are rechargeable lithium ion batteries in AA size, but I'm not sure about AAA. If you want a rechargeable AA battery look for 14500 lithium-ion. Take note that these non-rechargeable lithium batteries are 1.5 volts, and rechargeable are 4.2 volts. They are not interchangeable in most devices.

you can use any AA or AAA brand rechargeable batteries. I am using a Panasonic brand on this

You can use Alkalines, Lithium or NiMH rechargable batteries. The size is AA (4)

Absolutely not. You cannot possibly "push" current into a lithium-based battery. As long as you do not exceed the voltage (which is USB standard), all you care about is having enough current capability - no worry about too much.

Yes, there is a dedicated spot for 1.5v AA lithium batteries, although I, personally, don't have such batteries to test it.

You can use rechargable batteries, but you get more power when you use lithium batteries.

Hi Joyce ! Yes. Absolutely. You can use any brand of AA batteries for the A1300. I Always use rechargeable AA batteries. When they run down I just put them back in the charger and I'm good to go. I always take extra rechargeables wherever I go.
