It is a non replaceable solar powered rechargeable battery. It has held charge for me between usage of 30 days or more stored in a dark cabinet

no the battery is recharged by the solar panel. I have used the helmet after a winter of storage without a charge.

There are some batteries that can be replaced. There is apparently another internal battery that can only be replaced by sending back to factory. It is claimed to have a long life.

I believe you can change the battery. If it's difficult for you, maybe a friend or family member can help? I have not had to replace my battery, but if I remember correctly, you just use a small Phillips screwdriver, take the back off, & replace the battery with a new CR2032 3V battery.

Yes. The battery is an 18650 flat top. It can be replaced. But the light must be disassembled. And there is some soldering involved.

The battery can be replaced. Take a look at e.g. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zsnL7BTUH1o

Yes, the battery is replaceable. Its the same as a fairly common cell phone batt. The owners manual gives instructions.

Yes, the batteries are replaceable.I got mine about 6 months ago, and I haven't replaced them yet because they're working just as new and great.

Yes, the batteries are replaceable (but not by a typical user)- you must disassemble the unit and have soldering skills. I've replaced mine almost yearly. It takes about an hour, but is cheaper than using the Electrolux option.

No. Its batteries are internal and rechargeable. I guess they can be replaced but would require disassembly. It also has a hand crank for emergency power.

The rechargeable batteries are in the handle but they are not replaceable as far as I know. I bought one 6 years ago and the batteries still hold a charge for over an hour.

Sorry that I cannot be more help. I like the unit, but I do not know if the battery can be changed.

Yes the battery can be replaced. I'm not exactly sure which one it takes but it is a round one like a watch battery or old style hearing aid battery. Sorry not at home right now on the road.

Yes you can replace the recargable batteries -- they are the same size as a AA Battery thus you can substitute regular AA Batteries till they run out.

I think that the battery pack can be replaced but not by you. Try going to a Batteries Plus if you have one in your area.

Yes, the battery can be replaced. Remove the two screws on the top, then unplug the black top from the battery pack. The battery pack is held on with some clear silicone, so you have to pry it off with a putty knife or some other tool that is thin and flat. I don't recall if it had three or four rechargeable batteries within a rubberized outer covering. I purchased one at Fry's Electronics for around $14. Very easy to replace. Wayne
