It says the lithium ion battery is required but does not say what type of lithium ion battery it needs. What battery does it take?

I took mine straight out of the package and started using it immediately. I never put a battery in it, I just make sure the solar indicator is on when using outside. I have yet to try to charge it by any other means but it holds a charge for a very long time after being outside. It wouldn't suprise me if that's a typo honestly. I don't even see a spot on it to put a battery.

Hi, it uses a CR2016 Lithium battery, very common, not expensive and easy to change.

the battery that comes with it is a lithium ion "N" type battery, replacement must be available at a big box or electronics retailer.

The one I purchased was an AGM type battery which is regular sized. l think the lithium ion type batteries are lighter and more compact than the OEM and require spacers.

As Dana B. answered, the battery is built in. It is a Lithium Power battery. I have been using it for several months and it is adequate at best. The battery lasts a goodly amount of time.

It can probably have a rechargeable Li-ion battery. Its strange why it doesn't come with anything like that?

3.75 lithium ion. Not something you can buy at Radio shack but you can find them online. You'll probably never need one if you take care of it.

Dear Andrea L. there is 1 Lithium-ion battery included and you don't need to buy any other batteries.

18650 lithium ion rechargeable cells. They can be found on Amazon very cheap but if they are cheap they are fake. Make sure to check reviews. You will need a charger as well.

Ask the seller, if it is not in the ad. Mine came with a battery. I had everything else, didn't need anything.

I don't remember what battery it takes because mine had the batteries were soldered in and I couldn't use it anymore!

It is hidden in the description - 18650 Battery. Search Amazon or eBay and you'll find them. They are a slightly wacky but very effective Li ion battery. Do some research and get a reasonable quality. Some of them claim high storage but I think they are all about the same.

Lithium Ion batteries that come included, they are supposed to run for a year, but I haven´t tried mine.

Lithium , you have to purchase a separate charger. The batteries do not charge when plugged into AC.

They have several listings here on Amazon. It is a 18650 3.7V Lithium Ion (Li-ion) rechargeable battery. Which means you will also need the charger. Just search for 18650 battery and you'll find many choices.
