Do you need 4 AAA batteries for each handset?

No there is a two battery sealed pack in each set. We had this with the other phone set and was much more expensive to purchase these battery packs than to just purchase new phones.

NO They take a battery that looks like (2) two AA batteries incased in a plastic wrap and has two wires with a special plug end that matches the phone. I sure wish that there was some way to convert to rechargable AA's but not that I can figure out how to do it. They use a CR1231 battery

Yes, batteries are included and just fyi, I gave these as a gift and they are working out very well. Great value! They love the phones.

They are not like AA or AAA batteries but are battery pack that can be bought at Wal-Mart, Radio Shack (a bit high priced). Look at Wal-Mart or similar store for this battery pack in the phone/electronics section: BT183342/BT283342 (2.4 volt 400mAh). They are $4.58 new on Amazon if you wish to use the BT numbers to look it up.

Yes, they take one AAA battery. They should be switched "off" when not in use to preserve the battery by sliding the yellow switch on the side. They are still functional when the battery is dead; the noise reduction feature will not work, though. Hope this helps :)

Yes, you can buy just the handsets and they come with charger as well. Once you get them, just register them to the base unit like the manual tells you. I use mine every day and I purchased 2 additional handsets to with older base unit same model and no issues. I now have 6 units around the house. Works perfect.

Actually I gave a misleading answer. When I purchased, it came with only two handsets. It seems that it is now being offered with 4.

Sorry but I don't know. My set had four handsets which was sufficient for my use. I would speculate that it would but that is pure speculation.

The battery pack in the handset is BT183342. They are 2.4v 400Ah Ni-MH....... Batteries are rechargable.... The battery pack is the size of 2 AAA batteries that are joined with a different plug.

4 AA batteries is correct. Note that you must have a small phillips screwdriver to open the battery compartments (yes, there are two compartments). A jeweler's screwdriver will be sufficient.

Yes, this phone set does come with batteries. It is a very nice phone set and works well with a fairly long range.

I do not know one battery from the next in phone batteries but what i do suggest is that you contact the seller they have a list the batteries will work with or can tell you what you need to get. I contact the seller when I want to know for certain.

No it doesn't NEED the batteries unless your using the caller id. I have mine mounted to the wall so I put batteries in it so that if I wanted to I could use the caller id without taking it down. Overall very happy with the phone.

For "normal" operation, you don't need any batteries. The phone has a power supply that it uses. The phone uses 4 AA batteries for the amplification in the event of a power failure. I don't have any batteries in mine - we don't loose power that often, and if we do, there is still some amplification, just not the large boost.

I bought a pre-owned phone and YES I did receive batteries with it. By the way, we love the phone!

Yes, it appears you can only use 2 handsets at a time and the third must remain in the base unit. See pg 20 in the Operating Instructions.
