Does anyone know what batteries fit into the 2 slots that look like AA size next to the meter? I put 2 eneloop AA batteries in there but they fall about 3-4mm short where the connectors cannot touch both ends of the battery at once. Anyone know which...

If it is the one that I bought, to the left, there is a metal wire, put the battery's in like you would a flashlight, end to end! Hope this helps. Happy New Year.

I have a large yard, so I have two batteries, ordered 3-6 months apart and they are a little different on top. However, neither have any meter on top.

I use this meter everyday, nothing new that a meter like this will drain the AA and AAA. Never seen it as a problem, get the cheap Fluke, it will keep the batterys for 2yrs even.

With the batteries vertical it will take up 2 3/4 inches. It will hold all batteries, however, the AA size are the tightest fit. The batteries swell a little when charged and do not fit as well. Have just the bottom third of the battery (AA) in the pocket, but still not quite as high as the D cells. The 2 3/4 measurement still holds. Would have liked to see one more row of D cells.DoC

It has a dedicated spot just for Lithium AA battery, if you can see the picture well enough, the second spot from top on right is ONLY AA lithium. In my experience this meter is simply amazing and accurate.

Hi Jay, Could you send me photos ? In fact, you should consider the pins that make contact with power of Radio and the pins for recharge. ( when you put in base to recharge) The main problem of this batteries is because it is more wide than radio support. It forces the back cover of radio, and it not ease to close when you put it in radio. You need you tape to fix it. ( the radio look likes a old radio - terrible ) Another point is check the voltagem and mainly the electronic current, that for this product is 700mAh. Please if you want you can send my a email with photos. andregamaral@bol.com.br Regards Andr

we use rechargeable AA in there all the time and have no problem. This is our second one. They tore the first one apart. They lve that thing

No it does not. It has 2 C-sized and 2 D-sized adapters, however, which allow you to use the AA's in the C and D sized battery compartments. They are effectively just hollow inserts that hold a single AA cell and allow the terminals to be exposed top and bottom. I've not tried them, but they look like they would work, but of course you're getting AA capacity, not the full C or D-size capacity, if that makes sense. But that is just my impression, as I have not tried them.

I haven't seen the information that you are talking about, but if you Google AA 18650 eneloop, what comes up is a Sanyo battery charger, that will charge AAA and AA batteries.Simon recommends that you use rechargeable batteries, and that particular brand is supposed to discharge slowly (an issue with rechargeable batteries is that they discharge even when not being used). So I would assume that they are recommending a particular brand of rechargeable battery, rather than saying you can use an AA battery.

Thanks! It's good to know, just for an emergency. I've run my Nextgen unit for about 5 years using 2 of their 2/3 batteries. I keep one in the unit and every month or so swap them.

Yes, in addition to coming with a tray to hold the EN-EL15 battery, it comes with a tray to hold 6 AA batteries. And both regular and rechargeable AA batteries work just fine. I use mine with Eneloops.

Kinda late here, but with my experience Duracell provides the best though Eneloops have been known to work well in this device as well.This device won't work well on older NiMH batteries though, if the mA has been lost in the batteries this device won't charge very well.

I have used Eneloop batteries for a few years now and love them. Never had one "Go Bad". I give them as gifts as well. The trick with the Paper Clip is great advice and works. Another tip ,, get yourself a cheap Battery Tester like this one from Amazon. A quick test of your suspect battery should show it "Low" in the red area and can recharge. If the battery really IS dead it will peg the negative scale. I give these as gifts too because they are so handy.

Wow.....answered your question too fast. It takes 2 AA batteries. Had to look up perimeter batteries to figure what it was you wanted. Looks like plain, old 2AA batteries to me. Works well, BTW. Sorry for the confusion.

I'm not sure of the difference, but whatever you do, make sure that all the#'s match up don't mix of they don't! Example the EN-EL14 is 7.4V 1030mAh 7.7Wh, if those don't match, don't mix. But on the plus side, it will still work with 1 battery at a time, so just keep them charged up and ready to shoot!

Are you referring to the AA or the AAA? I don't know too many AA batteries that only have 900mAh capacity. Even the first AA NiMH batteries i got were at 1600mAh. Double check that you are getting the correct size batteries.

The batteries included have a relatively low capacity, only 700mAh.The Microsoft Play & Charge includes a battery with double that capacity, 1400mAh.Your typical alkaline AAs have a capacity around 2400mAh, provided they're of decent quality.I've got some 2700mAh rechargeables, but they're more of a pain to take out and switch than disposables.I'm guessing that's the reason for the 3 bar reading, sorry for going overboard with the details. It's not something to worry about.
