The only difference I can see between the indoor and indoor/outdoor models in the weight and the battry. Does the indoor also have chargeable batteries?

No, the indoor doesn't have batteries at all. I also notice there is a difference in the "brightness" of the display. The outdoor is brighter. Make SURE you inspect it when you receive it. I had to return 2 that didn't work. They replaced them quickly but if you have time issues, be safe & give yourself some extra time.

Superior! I can charge the battery and three months later it will have full charge, unlike the 18V. The 20V last longer, jobs that I did with the 18V, I needed three fully charged batteries to complete; with the 20V, one. Plus, it is a lot lighter.

It's the bigger batteries. Not sure of name though. I was first concerned of the weight at first but I don't even think about it now. Holds a charge forever it seems but does take 45 min to charge. I still love it and I've had them all!

They are both the same. It's just the more expensive one comes with batteries. The cheaper one is just the bare tool. (The impact gun and clip)

I have charged mine indoors no problem. Good rule of thumb is to always have ventilation, but you should be fine. Very contained battery. I have two, and I have been really pleased with them.

You are correct. I've had mine in indoor use for about 2.5 months and show 62% battery remaining.

It does not. In my opinion, it is beneficial to have the versatility to be able to use standard batteries. The battery makers all have rechargeable batteries now, so you could go that route and still have the option to use alkaline or lithium off the shelf batteries in a pinch. It's just a lot easier for me to carry extra batteries (although the run time on this lamp is very long) than carry a charger and worry about a power source. Just food for thought.

The difference is that this is more expensive and pretends to be rechargeable. As many have noted on the site, the recharging does not work.

It has rechargeable batteries built in. They cannot be removed so if u want spares u better have another camera. As for weight I can't say exactly but it is very light without the case/mpunts. It is pretty heavy with all that.

It has an adapter to use 3 standard AAA's. It does come with the rechargeable battery and the charger as well, but you can use standard batteries via the adapter. I've never tried it so I don't know if there's a performance difference or not.

I don't notice a difference as far as battery life is concerned. They work great! One thing that I did notice, the battery is hard to remove from the charging case but I have only charged the batteries a couple of times. There is a video that shows u how to remove them and l will look at that again someday.....Not a big deal.

The CTEK offers pulse charging, which is the coming RAGE in battery charging. Worth the extra $8 IMO I have built home made pulse chargers, and they are so much better for ALL types of batteries, except Lithium types.

There are blue and white covers or stickers on the batteries but they are all the same internals. I assumed the difference was a way to keep track of which were charged and which were drained and in need of charging.

I'm pretty sure the only difference is the charger supplied (not the battery). The charger is made differently than the typical "wall wart" charger to be more "energy efficient".

Hi Vineela,Aesthetics are slightly different as well as the battery they use. CR2032 vs. AAA.Hope this helps,GoWISE USA

The charge takes less than two hours after the initial charge. My batter lasted me almost two weeks of non continuous shooting, so all in all probably 8-10 hours of serious continuous shooting. However if you are shooting a lot of indoor shots, it might last less as the live mode seems to burn battery a bit more than auto.

The AA or AAA batteries are of a different size and shape and the voltage is different. I found that you can order conversion kits, but the reviews on them are not good. The 18650 battery holds a charge for a long time and I find it quite convenient. I keep a second battery charged at all times in the event I need to replace.
