It does not come with batteries. It requires three. Any AA batteries will work, rechargeable or otherwise.

It uses 3 dinky coin (LR41) batteries. Since it's an LED light, the batteries are lasting longer than I had expected: 60 hours and going strong!

It takes 4 AA batteries. It does not have built-in or rechargeable battery. However, it works well, regardless.

It uses batteries (2). Last thru 3-4 movies. Works in car, have not tested range, mostly because there is no need to. Product is very nice for the price! Recommend purchase over OEM set.

I think it's 2-4 AA batteries / I can't be sure and it's packed away with all the summer time supplies in the garage, otherwise I could give you a more definitive answer. I do remember it wasn't any of the larger more pricey batteries since I had whatever it took already on hand. Hope that helps! Btw...love love love this system - living in the south it's a must have for anyone that has multiple gardens to water. Saved us while away from the house on vacation too!

uses AA batteries. Also it has a feature that will ask you what type of batteries are installed.

It takes 4 AA batteries. I didn't use rechargeable batteries, so I don't know how long they would last. I did put some fresh batteries in my daughters about a week ago and it's still going strong. She uses it for about an hour at a time and usually every other day. I have found that it doesn't "eat" batteries.
