They do make rechargeable C batteries. Just remember that rechargeable batteries starting voltage is 1.2 volts, where non rechargeable batteries start at 1.5 volts ( fully charge it is closer to 1.6). The rechargeable batteries will not last as long as regular batteries.

As long as it is alkaline. But don't let the batteries get completely dead.

I can't see why not. As I understand though, most rechargeable batteries don't last as long as a good quality alkaline type.

No this device works with batteries type C. Don't use charger, the time of duration of the batteries, with continuous use is about 1 week

You can use C cell re-chargeables if you wish. They will work great with the kit.

You should be able to get about 15 hours of use at least for each battery. Also, for frequent users, we recommend switching over to a rechargeable battery system. You can buy one on Amazon. JUST DON'T USE THE REGULAR C123 BATTERIIES IN THE RECHARGER BUT INSTEAD USE THE RECHARGABLE BATTERIES IT COMES WITH!!!

Sure, get some D-cell sized rechargeable batteries and a charger. They are lighter than standard D-cells but the charger is extra weight.

You can use any brand of rechargeable batteries, otherwise if you use it much you will be wasting a lot of money on throw away batteries.

Yes, I use recharged batteries all the time. Just as long as they are the right size. Do not mix the types. Use two recharged or two that are new.

Yeah about a year, but the C batteries are kinda expensive. I may use the C battery converters and use double A rechargeable batteries.

Yes. I always use it with rechargeable batteries. It doesn't last for 18 months though.

Yes you can use rechargeable batteries; that is how we use ours. Most apps and games are geared to preschoolers and 1st graders. You can check the Demo site a leapfrog.com and see some video of apps.

No, Daniel. You can use regular batteries. I use rechargeable batteries to have plenty on hand and I've found they last about five times longer than regular disposable batteries.

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.

I use regular replaceable batteries and it has a little button you push to check them. But I don't see why you cant use rechargeable.

You can use regular or rechargeable. However, I complained months ago when I bought the head phone ( 2 0f them ) that I could not get these to work properly. Never received a response to my complaint or better directions for trouble shooting.

I use 2 C batteries...I don't think AAA batteries would fit....when you open battery compartment by rotatingend of handle it shows a compartment for only C batteries

NO. Only use AA batteries. Do not use rechargeable because they do not hold on the right charge for long. I did install a female power jack. This way I could use an adjustable volt, 1.5v to 12v, DC wall power supply. I hope this helps. Have fun with it. RobS...
