It says it needs a battery that lasts 2 hours. Can you use recharable batteries and can you plug it in the cigarette lighter instead of using batter?

You can plug it in to the cigarette lighter. But it uses kilometers not miles and I haven't figured out if I can change it or not. I don't think I can for that reason I wouldn't recommend it. Otherwise it was okay.

You are only suppose to recharge the battery no longer than 6hrs; however, I can charge it 6hrs and when I go to use it - one charge will last about 30-45mins....

When mine starts to go a little dim I plug it in at the end of the day an its ready to go the next morning.sorry but I don't know how many hours it takes exactly. I don't think the battery will last for a straight 8 hr but it should last a straight 4 hr. I like mine very much and would buy another one. And its tougher than some people say, I left mine under the car when i let it down, an all that broke was the hook on the top, a little NP1 and its fine.

you put it in the back of the main speaker, can you actually charge it with an usb cord, since the battery is rechargeable. Battery lasted only 2 hours with continuous play when fully charged.

It is a rechargable battery that lasts about 2.5 hours. You can also plug it into a wall outlet and use it while it charges

No, it doesn't come with rechargeable batteries. You use normal batteries. I think is better because you can have a couple of backup batteries

It's rechargeable so you can plug it in when it's dying. My battery lasts 3 hours at the most. It might be a defective one, or that might be normal. I am not sure about that at this point.

I once dismantled such a torch and I assure you it is NOT rechargeable at all. It comes with 3 pcs of button battery, but they are disposable. They ran out after some usage. Then you will never be able to charge them. Rechargeable batteries are expensive and make the electrical circuit much more difficult.

It uses AAA batteries, i'm not sure if you can find rechagable batteries that can be used instead of the AAA batteries.

you can use it plugged in but it only takes 15 mins to charge mine. I have used it for 2hours on a charge. I would not let it plugged in all the time the heat of the charge will shorten the internal battery life over time.

Hi Firebomb. It doesn't take batteries at all. You charge it. I use the power source from my iphone along with the cord to the speaker to charge it from a wall outlet. Mine has gone 6 hours straight without needing a charge. We have several in our household, and we've used them for outdoor parties without a problem. I guess it depends on your use.

Yes, it is rechargeable. Just follow the simple instructions on the Instruction Card included with the storage pouch and charger. Basically, after starting your car, you can keep it plugged into the vehicle's cigarette lighter port, then reverse a switch on the charging cord and keep your car running for about 20-30 minutes.

It does have a battery but it will not last that long. I have only used the "battery" for short time to view what I have recorded. I'm not sure how long it will hold up. I'm sure you that there are AC to DC convertors that you can get with cigarette lighter type of plug. I hope this helps.

It usually last for 2 hours. You should be able to get a second Battery, even a bigger one.

The built-in 470mAH Li-polymer rechargeable battery,which can last 2-3 years. After fully charged,the car camcorder can be wirelessly used. If built-in battery is no longer chargeable, it can still works,no need battery power,directly powered via its cigarette lighter charging cable.

Yes! But the battery runs out pretty quick, so you might just make it to 1 hour and 50 minutes, then it needs recharging.
