I am not sure .It was a gift for someone last christmas and he still plays with it.

I'm sorry, I don't know the answer. My grandchildren love all the snap circuits.

Glad to hear the toy is a good one. Ordered the AC unit for it. Maybe it will work. Thanks for your time.

Yes this will work. I own this product and it works very well. I love the car charger perfect for outings.

No, it won't. You can use only 1.2-1.5V AA rechargeable or non-rechargeable batteries.

Yes it will but they will not last too long. Great for in an emergency but not for regular use, rechargables are the way to go.

Yes. The batteries that were supplied with my unit were cheopos I have seen at frys. You can probably use regular batteries or get a good set of rechargables.

Yes it will work in a car, but it is much more battery than you need. We use it for applications that are destructive to normal batteries, like our rental dump trailers. It seems to tolerate the abuse of occasional deep discharges that would shorten the life of regular automotive batteries. We do not use deep cycles because the rental use does not discharge and recharge enough to warrant them.

In order to recharge the car's battery, the Simple Start unit puts out a higher than normal voltage that could damage other products. I wouldn't risk it, even if you find a way to wire up other things. If you need a portable cigar lighter socket, try a portable starter pack or similar product that has a 12V socket.

yes this charger should work with other batteries. the charger has an auto shut off when battery is charged.

Hello Ahmad, I don't believe it would work - rechargeable batteries charge slowly to avoid rapid expansion and cracking in the internal structures so I don't think it would be worth the risk even if it did work. This is the reason these things charge somewhat slowly.

As per the product spec's "Energizer Recharge Smart Charger charges 2 or 4 AA or AAA NiMH rechargeable batteries"as long as the batteries are NiMH rechargeable types it SHOULD work. Personally, I just use the ones that came in the kit

It plugs into the base unit not the radio or battery. That's the only issue with the car charger. Figuring out how to use it while mobile may be a challenge but it does work when the unit is stationary. I put Velcro attachments on my base unit to keep the radio steady while charging while driving and so far it appears to work okay, you just need to find a stable and flat area of the vehicle to mount the base unit (more Velcro) where if it does pop out it wont hinder driving safely.

Yes if you have the required combination antenna/earphone. The internal rechargeable radio battery has a use time out of car between an hour & 40 mins.

I have used it in 2 different cars, a Toyota Corolla and a Ford Fiesta and it worked fine in both cars. I'm assuming that as long as the car has a cigarette lighter socket, the charger will work.

Hi Jaedon, I don't know if these batteries will work with your car, however I believe that you can get adapters at Radio Shacks and Hobby Towns. Good luck, and remember to have fun. Chow from Leigh W.

i've used it with both rechargable and AA batteries. the AA worked for me, but had two negatives in comparison to the rechargables: it felt heavier, and the battery life was shorter. if your adapter for the AA isnt working properly, it might be the unit. have you tried using the rechargable batteries?

I don't know, but I wouldn't think so, because it takes external triple As. I do use rechargeables, but I plug them into their little recharging station.

Not unless the device is made to use and recharge rechargeable batteries, so the answer would be no unless it was made to use rechargeable batteries to begin with.
