Can rechargeable batteries be used?

The real question is: why? I don't think I've changed the batteries in over a year. I can't imagine rechargables ever paying for themselves at this rate.

I believe so. I use rechargeable batteries, but Lithium should work. I haven't had any problems with them and my other devices.

Yes, can use rechargeable batteries, but I purchased a rechargeable battery box: http://www.amazon.com/Stealth-Cam-12V-Battery-Box/dp/B0015ZWSMW/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1376575331&sr=8-3&keywords=wildview+trail+camera+battery which lasts more than a month at a time, is rechargeable and has made maintaining batteries much less hassle

As far as I can tell, the rechargeable batteries are built-in. I'm not even sure if they're replaceable.

I haven't tried using rechargeables, but I don't see it being a problem as long as they are the D size. The only possible issue I see is that using rechargeable batteries could result in weaker light and faster draining of the batteries. As I said I haven't tried rechargeables in this lantern, but I had those issues years ago when I used them in a mag light.

To be honest I don't understand your question. Yes you can use a rechargeable battery

yes they can. but a big enough battery with 12 volts of power. like a battery from a electric start 4 wheeler or lawn mower. that could give you hours of use until the battery needs to be recharged.

Cmiller is correct, you can use rechargeable batteries. I remembered a warning in the manual regarding rechargeable batteries, so I checked it again-- it warns against trying to use non-rechargeable batteries in a battery recharger, which might seem like a no-brainer but some people might be tempted to try doing that. There is even a function that lets you specify that you're using rechargeable batteries. But it would be much better to just buy the Survival Kit, which has a power adapter, headphones, and extended warranty.

I have not tried rechargeable batteries in it, but don't see why not and it will save you money in the end. I might also suggest Lithium if you are not getting the battery life on rechargeable 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...

Yes. You can replace with rechargeable or alkaline batteries easily. Do not try to recharge alkaline batteries. They would only be used to recharge a cell phone or something similar. Rechargeable batteries have many cycles before they have to be replaced. They are environmentally friendly. I did not feel that the solar charge feature worked well. The USB cord plugged into external power, works best.

No you don't need rechargeable batteries. There is a built in battery inside that is rechargeable by solar. Great light tho.

Yes, you can purchase recharging batteries that will work. I bought Energizer Recharge Power Plus from Lowes Hardware and they do work. Regular batteries (non-rechargeable) do not work!

I've never tried it with rechargeable batteries. But I don't see why not...,

We never use it for rechargeable batteries, it is only for alkaline batteries. Works great.

Not unless the device is made to use and recharge rechargeable batteries, so the answer would be no unless it was made to use rechargeable batteries to begin with.

No. You have to insert batteries and there's no place to plug in. I don't know if they make rechargeable batteries in that type.
