The description states this toy uses "three non-standard" button batteries. Does anyone know what the battery type actually is?

As mentioned in my review, Soft Kitty uses the little round LR44 button batteries x3. Hope this helps.

The doll came with batteries already installed. I have not removed them, but surely they have a type/number engraved on the battery that you should be able to read in order to purchase replacement batteries.

This was a gift for someone else. My guess would be (since they offer to sell them with the set) would be the button batteries. Hope this helped!

We haven't had that to happen to our grandson's toy and he does use it often, so I don't know what to suggest, except to contact the Kidoozie Company. Sorry. Seems the batteries would have been the solution. If it's new, maybe send back to Amazon.

It uses the 3v 123 batteries, but I returned my system, due to lack of instructions and customer support. It is a cheap Chinese system that would not work right.

It's another way of referring to button Batteries, which are shaped like coins. Stuff like thin remotes/small toys, etc.

I just used regular AA batteries, Energizer I believe, and it has worked just fine. I hope you are able to find something that makes it work better for you. My little guy plays with his everyday!

As others said, it is a CR2032 battery, which is a round button-style battery. One thing to note: when it comes time to change the battery, all the settings and the info in the memory will be lost, so it will need to be reset.

Not regular AA batteries. It comes with an adaptor, if I am not mistaken, for 3 AAA batteries.

This device uses two button batteries and can be found on the back under the small plastic snap door. These batteries are a bit difficult to remove, as they are seated deep in the well and have small plastic "snap" locks holding them in.I used a tiny bladed screwdriver to hold the little plastic snap clips away from the battery (careful: you don't want to break these) and then was able to pry the battery out with the tip of the screwdriver. A pain to be sure, but it can be done without too much difficulty. If my memory serves me correctly, the battery type is DL-2032.

The one misgiving I have about this otherwise well-constructed toy is the choice of button-cells to power it. I understand the attraction of small size, but these cells can cost $3 - $5 /each/ to replace, and since you use all the tiles at once, when you do have to change cells you'll probably need to replace all five.$15 - $25 in batteries for a $20 toy is really a bit of a mind- (and pocketbook!) boggler.

There are two different battery sizes involved, one for the clicker and one for the receiver. They are a lithium cell CR2032, widely available at places that sell batteries for electronics (I got a replacement at a local drug store, but I imagine that big box stores would carry them). Round, flat battery. The other one is a 27A 12v Alkaline battery, looks like a teeny AAA battery but even smaller. I didn't have the patience to go around looking for this (the drug store I bought the other battery from didn't have them) so I ordered several on line through Amazon to have handy. They were inexpensive. An extra battery set is included with each Click n Ship, which is a nice plus.

One of the little button batteries. I think the number is cr2032. I've had this type of clicker for a long time and generally only have to replace the battery every other year or so.

Buy new batteries. It takes 3 cell batteries. I looked up the doll online to find out what size it takes. It works fine after the batteries are replaced.

How do I find out what kind of battery pack I need go the toy? Is it written on the toy?

I did a search and found that it uses a button-cell battery - LR44. On Amazon:
