If you use recharable batteries can you recharge while they are in the unit?

I only use non rechargeables, get 1.5 to 2 rounds per set, and carry a spare set

I do use rechargeable batteries. I carry 4 sets in my golf bag and switch them when they go dead. I'm not sure about charging them in the unit, I do not. Mine did not come with anything to charge the unit with batteries in. Sorry I'm not much help. But I do like it. Works great

I do not use recharable batteries I get approx. 5 rounds of golf on standard batteries

I own a Garmin G5 and use rechargeable batteries. No, it cannot be charged in the unit, however, it is extremely easy to install/remove the batteries. I use a 4 battery pack charger, and use two freshly charged ones each round (probably not needed after one round of use, but it is so easy that it is not a problem). When I use the second set, I simply put the first set into the charger and, at the end of the day, add the other two and them charge them all. It's a snap !The 4 battery charger set is an Energizer NiMH AA-AAA unit that came with 4 AAA batteries and was fairly cheap.

I don't think so but I'm not sure. Rechargables make sense as the battery life is short.

If you are using rechargeable batteries, yes it can be used while the batteries charge. If you are using it while it is plugged in, make sure you remove the batteries, unless they are rechargeable.

You can if you want to use re-chargeable batteries in the remote .Best Regards,Glen DeKleinA Bit Of Everything

Yes, you can purchase recharging batteries that will work. I bought Energizer Recharge Power Plus from Lowes Hardware and they do work. Regular batteries (non-rechargeable) do not work!

Sure! It all depends on the condition of the batteries and how fast you want to recharge them. If they are not all the same age and charge level you might want to charge them separately.

The batteries do not recharge while in the unit, they have to be removed and charged with your own charger.

I have never used rechargeable. But it seems to work very well with the normal batteries and last a long time. I put batteries in my radio in Jan and they still are good at the end of March. I've been putting the radio on a little bit almost daily.

No. The charger directions specifically say it's for use with rechargeable batteries only. You should not try to charge "regular" batteries in the charger meant for rechargeable batteries.

I'm sure you can use rechargeable batteries as long as they are correct size. I use mine for a while and due to climate and salt water air exposure, I remove the batteries when it's not in use. battery bleeding acid will corrode the connections. You don't want to leave batteries unattended in any unit for too long.

Yes, as long as you hook everything up correctly, the batteries are rechargeable.

Yes, you can plug it and use it. If the electricity goes out or it gets unplugged, the batteries take over. It consumes regular C batteries fairly quickly. Since mine is plugged in most of the time, I've not bought rechargeables for it, but if you planned to use it off AC for long periods of time, I would recommend getting a set of them.

No. I'm not sure what kind of rechargeable batteries you have, but I have tried this before with the energizer rechargeable batteries and it doesn't work because you can only charge them with the charger case thing that comes with the batteries. I'm guessing this can be applied to all rechargeable batteries. For some reason the usb charger won't recognize the batteries, and if they do charge it is a lie! Maybe this didn't work for just me, byt it's better if you just buy the battery pack. Much longer battery life.

No. You can use regular rechargeable batteries. Nice little kit though. Takes two AA batteries about 3 hours to recharge.

You can use rechargeable batteries, BUT ONLY if they are ALKALINE Batteries. This is what I was told, so best to do what they say. Good Luck!!!!!

The operating word is "rechargeable." If the batteries say "rechargeable" then this unit will handle them. Never put non-rechargeables in it.

I use regular replaceable batteries and it has a little button you push to check them. But I don't see why you cant use rechargeable.

I just use alkaline batteries. I am not sure about rechargeable batteries. Sorry.
