It takes 2 AAA batteries. Being rechargeable would be a great added feature though.

Thank goodness it takes AA batteries. When you need to take your temperature you need it now. Not after the batteries recharge. You can always cannibalize a remote to get a couple AA's if you don't happen to have some fresh. However, these days, who doesn't?

It is rechargeable - no need to buy batteries. The old model ate batteries.

It has a rechargeable battery. You didn't ask but I have to tell you this is a great little camera. We bought it before an Alaskan cruise and we got some great glacier shots from long distances. Also, unlike the Lumix this camera replaced, it holds the charge well. I did a lot of research before we bought this because we need more zoom capability and we were not disappointed. In addition, the editing tool is just too easy to use. Research said this was a great camera for the price and they were right on target.

It is rechargeable. It is a lithium ion battery like a cordless drill. It states that it will stay charged for up to a year but I try to charge mine whenever I think about it. Usually about once a quarter.

It is some type of rechargeable non-replaceable battery, I really do not know what type it is. I just plug it into a USB charger with an AC adapter (i.e. cell phone charger) to charge it. The battery lasts for about 10 hours of AM recording on one charge.

This is a rechargeable light. I bought it as a gift. I don't know what kind of battery it has but the person that I gave it to uses it every day and says it's the best light he ever had. To use his words, "it's excellent." Hope this helps.

it has a rechargeable lithion -ion battery which cannot be replaced. I bought it because it does have a power cord which allows you to use it if battery is not charged.

Yes, this camera has a rechargeable battery but it has to be charged in the camera. The charge lasts a long time at least for the first six months. We also bought two extra batteries and an external charger which came as a kit. The manufacturer is Wasabi Power. I think we have only changed batteries once in three months.

yes it has a rechargeable battery. I'm sure you could buy the replacement type online. The battery will last over a day of on and off use.

I am not sure exactly. But I will tell you the batteries drain really fast. I would recommend the rechargeable one.

I don't know the type of battery in the camera, but it does recharge when you are plugged into a 12V power source. Mine has lasted about 2 hours while I piddled with some of the pictures and it didn't stop. I don't know the actual run time of the battery
