will the light work on rechargeable batteries ?

i do not know but that is a great question. I am not sure who would know the answer. I took my batteries out for this winter cause I am not using the lights now that I am in Florida. Sorry that I couldn't be more help.

I don't see why not, but the light lets you know when it needs to be recharged. so maybe sometimes. don't know if that helps.

Not really sure and I don't think so...Didn't come with rechargeable batteries when I bought it.

Sure. Any 12v battery will work. The length of time it will light is proportional to the capacity of the battery. These lights are pretty powerful so don't expect the battery to last very long.

I haven't used the rechargeable battery at all with this light. I think the AAA batteries are better, although they do create more waste so I would recommend recycling them when they have reached their limit. I think the light is great, but I would also couple it with a helmet light, too. Hope this helps.

It takes 3 AAA batteries....so I guess if you have rechargeable AAA batteries they should work.

I believe it is. I read somewhere these lights have a capacitor that regulates the power draw throughout the battery life, and a.low voltage warning when the power is below a certain level..it pays to go with the 18650 rechargeables if your going to use it much , . The top 2 setttings eat batteriesl.

AA batteries are too small for these units am still got the batteries came when unit just keep it charged I think they will last for a while, I'm sure you can buy these !either rechargeable or nonrechargeable but light works very well very bright

It uses 2- 3.7 volt rechargeable Batteries. My best luck was to take light to Radio Shack and make sure they fit .

Rechargeable batteries work, however keep in mind that because rechargeables are 1.2V each, and alkaline batteries are 1.5V, you will be running the battery at a total voltage of 2.4V instead the the 3.0V under which the flashlight was designed. That means that you would be running the flashlight at a voltage of 80% less than it was intended. You WILL notice a difference in brightness. However, if that is not a problem for you it works just fine with rechargeable batteries.

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

Larry P. I've been using rechargeable batteries in this light ever since I've had it. No bad results so far-- Regards,Bill H.

It takes AA batteries and I don't think that you can use rechargeable but I'm not sure. Our batteries have lasted a long time so I don't think you will have a problem.

I've never tried it with rechargeable batteries. But I don't see why not...,

I have not had my light that long...prehaps the rechargeable battery is the problem. Have you contacted the makers of the light?? I don't remember if it had a certain life of the battery when I bought mine.

I haven't tried using rechargeables, but I don't see it being a problem as long as they are the D size. The only possible issue I see is that using rechargeable batteries could result in weaker light and faster draining of the batteries. As I said I haven't tried rechargeables in this lantern, but I had those issues years ago when I used them in a mag light.

Hi, You can use rechargable batteries in the light, not sure if the difference is that noticeable. Thanks!
