But it came with batteries and I've never had to change them. It's been a year and my son plays with it everyday.

3AAA that I think is only needed to make the light go on in the front, I don't think we have had batteries in our for a LONG time....makes a sound when you push it forward, motion powered not battery powered. Does not run on its own. my 21 month old son will carry this with him everywhere! By far favorite toy he has ever had.

not very long, but it is OK. What I do is to buy some additional battery for it; I have 4 battery, I think it is too many. 2 battery will be good enough.

It uses 4 batteries. I've been using mine for 2 months and the batteries are still going strong. You may only have to replace them twice a year.

Yes, there are back up batteries in the base unit. I believe it takes four AA's.

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

It takes AA batteries. I didn't mind it so much at all, we just bought a big package of them and kept 4 handy while we were out.

It takes 4 AA batteries. The batteries I have used have lasted a long time. I haven't used rechargeable batteries in it yet.

Not long, had to buy an extra 3 pack of batteries to keep on hand. Never leave home without an extra one.

It takes two CR123 or DL123AB batteries. Use lithium batteries for longer life.

It takes 2 AAA batteries. Battery compartment a little tricky. Had to read reviews to know how to open it... However, every time my kids drop it on the floor, the battery cpartment pops open and the batteries come flying out. Boo...

It takes 4 AA Alkaline batteries. (Lithium batteries recommended for colder environments.)

Just one. I would not recommend. The charging system does not have a regulator and wrecks the battery if left charging too long. I've gone through 3 batteries and while they are not that expensive and easy to replace, it is a major pain. Only problem with it really. It sounds ok but the battery did last very long when it works.

I do not remember how many batteries there were as I left them at the school where I taught last year. I bough two pair. Take a little patience to sink all with the same channel but worth it.

Two, but I haven't opened this one, yet. We had installed this exact same model about 10 years or so ago. I thought it was just wearing out, we had changed batteries twice in a short period of time. But I bought a new package of batteries and low and behold, haven't had a problem since. But I'm hanging onto the spare. We love this thing. I can lock it and when the kids or husband get home, they just punch in the code and no worries. Everybody's happy. I can feel secure and no one is waiting at the door to be let in.

It needs 2 AA batteries. We are not sure how long the batteries will last though.
