Type of battery? Nickel-hydride? Lithium?

I place it on the charger installed on the wall. There's a battery compartment but I'm not sure which type of batteries it takes, as i never opened it to check. Sorry.

Eugen... the item is recharchable. It comes with a wall mounting unit that plugs into an outlet. When you are not using it, place the item on the wall unit for recharge.

No, Larry. It's a nickle-metal-hydride battery. About one third more efficient than nickle-cadmium.

Yeah, and the Lithium is way better, i have both battery types and the nicad's don't hold a charge long and wear out so fast, lithium is the way to go

The battery just plugs in so it can be replaced. It is Lithium Ion or Lithium Polymer. Google the part number online or check at a Batteries Plus store. The trick is getting the right size and it looks exactly like the ones that run my RC helicopter and plane.

3.75 lithium ion. Not something you can buy at Radio shack but you can find them online. You'll probably never need one if you take care of it.

Its a low voltage lithium-ion battery. I love flying this thing but can not find where to get parts, like spare battery.

I installed regular ni cad batteries. The best would be Energizer Lithium. Recharbles run dow much faster. I don't remeber the size but i think they were AA

You have read correctly! I hadn't paid any attention to the details until this query popped up. Try substituting lithium nickel hydride as the electrolyte combination and the chemistry makes sense. This affects the recharging characteristics in a positive way. Pure lithium batteries are hard to maintain and have a shorter life. In short; the batteries from De Walt and others are designed to last and do the job well. I have no complaints and do recycle the used ones through my local dealer.

You can use ni-mh rechargable batteries. Sanyo Eneloop batteries are the best.

Hi,Just checked the info that came with our units and in "environment", it comments that the handle contains nickel metal hydride batteries...Best regards,Merry

I believe a lithium, haven't needed to change the battery since I bought it. No on the recharge of course.

It specifies Lithium rechargeable batteries. I am having trouble finding rechargeable batteries that are lithium...most are Ni-MH. Can these still be used? (Sorry for the ignorance...I have never used rechargeable batteries!)

It is a lithium battery, like the one in your cellphone. Don't know if they are easily replaceable.

I believe they are Li-ion. They are small and light and seem to have good duration in use.

The standard charger is designed for nickel cadium batteries, No problem , Lithium ion might have issues

Linthium, NP-BN1. So far no problems, stays charged for a few days and charges quickly.
