I am sorry, S. Jay. I have no idea what batteries it uses. It was a Christmas gift for someone else, so I never opened/looked at it. If there is a Best Buy near you, I think they sell these types of cameras so you may be able to find out that way. Sorry!

No. It requires a special battery which it comes with. I also purchased 2 additional batteries through Amazon for just 20.00. Love this camera. It takes fantastic pictures and video - even underwater, but the battery life is short lived. Therefore, we carry the 2 extra batteries with us for easy replacement on the go.

No, you can not use AA batteries. I don't know if you can purchase an extra battery. So far battery life has not been an issue for me.

It uses AAA batteries. The item includes batteries but some chip ones... so I would recomend buying new ones.

To my knowledge it doesn't take any AAA batteries, it has a rechargeable battery. You just plug it in to the charger.

It uses AAA batteries. Just buy extra recharagable ones and a charger at Walmart and you always have extra. You can also buy them on Amazon.

Perhaps you should ask someone to list what items use AA batteries, or AAA batteries.... In other words, These are batteries, listing every possible use for them would be impossible. I suggest you start with the application and select the appropriate battery, not the reverse.

You can use rechargeable AA batteries. However because of their limited capacity compared to the Lithium batteries that ship with it you may not be as many or even a complete recharge of you device using rechargeables.

Uses AA batteries. You can buy the rechargeable ones, and use. Just get them recharged after each use.

It uses its own battery. It doesn't use AA batteries. But I know what you mean...I wish it did use AA's.

I think it takes either AA or AAA batteries. My daughter went to CVS and bought two packs of the batteries (one pack of each size) the day after I gave it to the kids.

You can use a regular AA battery or you can use the rechargeable 3.7 volt battery. It works fine with the AA battery but it is quite a bit brighter using the 3.7 volt battery. With either battery it is a quite impressive little light for it's size. I have purchased several.

2 AAA batteries. I use rechargeable batteries. I also wish the light did stay on longer.

AAA **RECHARGEABLE** - any kind will do. I bought a set of Sanyo batteries with a separate charger from Amazon.

It uses a rechargeable Lithium Ion Battery pack. I brought a spare one as a back up and its worth it. You can't use AA or AAA batteries. I am happy as a clam w/ my Nikon S97.

(2) AA Batteries. Alkaline or Lithium both work. Make sure your settings reflect which one you use.
