Bamboo pen - battery? Does this pen have a battery?

It does not have a battery. I'm not a computer genius, so I can't tell you how it manages to work without a battery, but I know that it does. No need to worry about replacements :)

Yes, it most certainly does. I ordered one for mine after I broke the pen it came with, and it works right out of the box. I emailed Wacom beforehand and they said none of the Bamboo pens work with the Intuos family, but that is a BOLD-FACED LIE. I think they don't want people to know the Bamboo pens work with the Intuos tablets so that people have to buy the pens through the Wacom site instead of a third party site (Amazon).

There is a battery inside it yes. But it does not come with an extra battery. Mine still works and I got it sometime the middle of last year.

No battery. The ink cartridges are quite small, so you don't need to be using it as a producrion printer. I use mine as a travel printer for business. Only about 90 pages of text per black cartridge.

Yes, Energizer & RadioShack sell AAAA batteries for this pen. RadioShack has a rechargeable version as well, albeit it's very expensive (like 6 or 7 dollars each). The best solution is to make AAAA batteries on your own by "butchering" a regular 9V battery. I was very skeptical about this hack at first. But after doing it on my own, I'm now a firm believer; it simply works - works wonders. Do a Google search and you'll find it in Wikipedia, Youtube & other web pages. Happy hacking!!!

My bloggie has not required an extra battery. It holds a long charge when off. I have to recharge mine about every weeks.

Negative. The back of the pen is a push button to activate the pen since it's battery powered.

The Pen IS rechargeable. There should have been an USB cord that came with it, unless the pen you have is the one with the batteries needed.

My pen will work for 2-3 hours. No more. The battery seems to have a memory affect. When it shows charged it will work for 30 extra minutes - max.

I haven't got the thing anymore to check, but if I recall correctly there's one AA battery you change by unscrewing the pen about it's middle.

It does come with a battery but I have not been happy with the life of the batteries-I have replaced several of them.

since this tablet was bought for my granddaughter I wasn't sure about the batteries, but I looked it up by googling it, and yes the pen does use batteries. The instructions for the use of the tablet should have the battery size.

It does! It did with mine at least, much prefer it to the battery operated one- the charge lasts for a long time and the pen is so much lighter, easier to work with.
