What type of battery does this unit use? AA, AAA, specialized battery? I like to use rechargeable batteries in everything.

It is a standard button cell battery, I am not sure the exact model, but I guess it will last a lot.

Sorry for the delay in my response but my mother-in-law just passed away and things have been busy!The unit uses a quarter size lithium ion wafer as a back up. I believe the number is CR 2130 but the number may be wrong? However, I have several other pieces of equipment equipped with the CR wafers and they last a long time unless the main power source often goes out? Mine last 5-8 years in normal usage.

It uses AAA batteries. Just buy extra recharagable ones and a charger at Walmart and you always have extra. You can also buy them on Amazon.

I did not get batteries with it. I don't see why you couldn't use rechargeable since they are AAA.

You can use rechargeable AA batteries. However because of their limited capacity compared to the Lithium batteries that ship with it you may not be as many or even a complete recharge of you device using rechargeables.

Its a renewable battery. This model is does NOT use AA or AAA but a rechargeable lithium-ion battery.

Any AAA batteries should work, but like another commenter, I recommend using eneloop nimh batteries. They actually last longer than alkaline and you don't have to worry about leaks. Plus they're rechargeable, and this thing eats through batteries fast.

I actually didn't use rechargable. I used regular AA and it worked perfectly for me!

I use AAA rechargeable batteries. Use the flashlight numerous times every day. Don't have any idea how much actual on time tho. I normally charge the battery's once a week. Great light for my frequent use.

it uses AAAA batteries. A little harder to find than some, but not that bad.

Rechargeable AAA batteries should work. I can see no reason why they wouldn't. However, the batteries that come with the unit are standard non-rechargeable.

I use AAA, but according to description Uses 3 x AAA or 1 x 18650 rechargeable Lithium-ion batteries"

It uses AAA batteries, i'm not sure if you can find rechagable batteries that can be used instead of the AAA batteries.

This items used two 'AAA' batteries. Although you could use rechargeable AAA batteries!

Sorry I can't answer you question concerning the AA posed in this question. I bought rechargeable AAA batteries, HR03/DX2400/NiMH/1.2V/800mAh. Perhaps this may help you.

I've left them at a friend's and can't check but, yes, it is a common battery type. Just not sure if is is AA or AAA. I carry both in my camera bag.

I only use regular batteries, I honestly do not know about that, sorry. I guess we'll have to do some research.
