What type of batteries does the flashlight use? Mine arrived without instructions

18650 - buy them on Amazon; just check on delivery with a particular vendor as some suppliers are slow with delivery.

I really can't remember. I had to order a battery recharge unit plus the batteries. When I got everything together, the flashlight did not work. I would suggest you get a flashlight that takes plain batteries that are easier to find. I sent my flashlight and the rest of the stuff back.

Dear Karen, mine arrived without batteries, too. However, a little of "Googling" helped me to find the adequate type of battery. So it is, as described near the product spec: 18650 3.7v. I bought the rechargeable one and everything functions fine from that moment on.

I can't remember, it looks like a huge AA battery. They are like $18 with the charger on amazon. But that flashlight is a POS. Not worth it!

18650 type. Get some quality batteries like Sony VTC5's, avoid any of these you can see on amazon called Ultrafire or anything like that.

Most sellers send a battery with the flashlight. If not you can purchase one separately.

2 D batteries. On a side note I accidently opened the top of the flashlight instead of the bottom to see what type of batteries were in it. When I opened the top, the lamp became loose and I was unable to replace it, making my flashlight unusable. Before that it worked "ok".

Actually, I got mine at our local hardware and it was just the flashlight, no box or even instructions. Which brings me to my question, anybody know how to make it strobe? I've played with everything so far and no luck.

It takes a 3.7 V 3000 mAh Rechargeable battery. You can get a regular 3.7 V battery but they are hard to find. I got some at Battery Plus, or something like that and they were fairly expensive, but the best way is to go to Amazon and find them. I ordered 4 rechargeable batteries with a charger and I think it was less than $10.00. When I got my flashlight I was pissed that batteries didn't come with it & they are hard to find. But the ones I bought worked great & they can be recharged. The flashlight is really bright & I have been very satisfied with the light.

1. Test the "new" batteries individually to make sure they are OK.2. Confirm that each battery is installed correctly into the holder - the flat (-) end of each battery should be towards the spring in the holder.3. Confirm that the battery holder is installed correctly into the flashlight - the holder goes in "bump" end first. If your flashlight still isn't working, then either the on/off switch or the LEDs have failed, and these are not user-replaceable.

Instructions included with my flashlight don't specifically say..I would suggest calling the Surefire customer service office to find out for certain. Good luck! \

Make sure the battery is installed with the positive end towards the bulb end of the flashlight. There was a plastic spacer tube shipped with the flashlight, when using the rechargeable battery, use the spacer tube to make sure the battery fits in the flashlight body properly.

The flashlight does not include a battery. You will need a 20 volt Lithium Ion battery as used in other B&D; cordless tools.

Radio Shack Brand Ultralast #18500 Lithium Phosphate 3.2V Battery. I dont normally do this but i am suggesting you return that flashlight while u still can. I had purchased two and had to return one almost instantly after receiving it and the second is dead. No matter how many diff fully charged batteries i replace in it, it refuses to work. Trust me SEND IT BACK. Pelican makes a less exspensive dive light that works very well.

I bought it as a gift for a friend, so I haven't used it. I think it came with batteries, ready to use, but I have no idea what kind. Sorry

The other answer mention the rechargeable batteries. Those are good to get and will work but if ur not willing to wait for the shipping, go to Walgreens or Walmart n purchase a lithium photo battery. 2 will work for this flashlight.

Batteries are located in the base. I believe it uses two AAs. The light output is very bright. We have had it up for two months with no problems.

It's a rechargeable flashlight with an internal NiCad Battery, you can buy a replacement for under $10 here on Amazon. It uses a charging cradle.

Not sure, but it's the best and brightest flashlight I've had...as far as battery, I bought a pair at battery+ place, for $18.00, but if u buy the charger from amazon for $12 , you'll get 2 extra batteries with it...it works great, in fact I have 3 of them and planning to buy more....Love it

Unfortunately we are not the vendor selling the used flashlight, it seems that is being sold by Amazon Warehouse Deals so you'd have to contact them directly.
