Does this specify alkaline C batteries only or can it use any type of C batteries, such as NiMH?

It uses regular C Cell batteries. I have own a bunch of Maglites and the 3 C cell size is the most comfortable and handiest.

Alkaline C batteries are 1.5v . . . rechargeable such as NiMH are 1.2v. You may see a difference in brightness.

We have had ours for about five months and we put in regular batteries and its still going strong!

I've used both types with no problems. It did not specify however. It's a really good flashlight, nice size.

Amazon has mixed the info on the C-Cell models with the D-Cell models. For some reason, Amazon gives the four D-Cell choices as "2-D Cell" "Black" "4-D Cell" and "One Size" instead of "2-D Cell" "3-D Cell" "4-D Cell" and "6-D Cell". They have also merged the reviews for all various models into one set of reviews. Apparently, Amazon thinks this is an article of clothing that comes in one-size-fits-all.

It depends entirely on the type of battery. This holder allows AA batteries to be used in place of the rechargeable Li-ion battery. If you use NiMH rechargeables you will get a similar number of photos. The real advantage is that you can use alkaline AA's which are widely available -- even in remote locations.

I don't recall the "H" designation on the ones I bought. I do know the designation for the 13 rechargables will say "mH" to show it is metal halide composition. Some will show "N" for nickle cadmium composition. F.Y.I. when I buy rechargable batteries for any application in my house I always prefer MH over Nickle. They last longer and take more charges for me.

Hi, it uses regular AA alkaline batteries, but I don't believe it came with any.

This charger CAN recharge NiMH batteries as well as the included Alkaline batteries.I wouldn't try standard disposable alkalines, but I use it for my sizable collection of NiMHs as well - in fact, I bought it to replace a failed charger that blew up four of my newer NiMH batteries.

Yes it does. I use rechargeable NiMH 2400 ma batteries and charge outside of the radio. There is a setting in the radio menu for alkaline or NiMH batteries

You will have to check the user manual, if you do not have one, you can get it at the Nikon site, This link should take you there, https://support.nikonusa.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/15996. Copy and paste it into your browser address line. if the manual states it will use the EN-MH battery then your OK. Until then you should be able to use alkaline batteries - but check the manual first.

For what its worth, the manual says to only use nickel metal hydride (NiMH) type batteries.

Comes with 2 alkaline C batteries. Been using those batteries for 6 months. Works great.

Mine uses 3 C batteries, but I found that AA batteries work just fine when used with AA to C adapters. This was a plus for me, because I have a large quantity of AA batteries, and happened to have some adapters on hand as well. I don't know why they don't just make AA the battery of choice. They're just as powerful, takes less space, and are generally cheaper to buy than C or D batteries.

If I am understanding your question correctly, the answer is no; you can also use alkaline batteries, but this recharger pack has a much better battery life and in the long run saves you more money.

I just got mine and couldn't find where it said not to use rechargeables, tried N-MH batteries and it worked fine. All 4 modes OK. I would rather use rechargeables since have had Alkalines leak and ruin things the last 3-4 years, (new ones ). I'm talking major brand batteries too. Maybe Chinas' Quality Control has dropped.

I bought it for a gift, but I'm pretty sure it uses regular AA or AAA alkaline batteries. They come included...

NiMH batteries are reuseable - for this one $6 shot = about a dozen AA alkalines over 4 charges e.g. http://www.amazon.com/Energizer-Instant-Charger-Mobile-Phones/dp/B0093GIME8

Yes...I have used both alkaline and charged nickel metal hydride that I charged myself. I did have difficulty with getting the battery case to stay closed. The tolerances for fit and finish are not very good. Took some maneuvering to get it to stay together. Sometimes you get what you pay for in the QC component.

The back of the charger says, "Rechargeable Alkaline and NiMH Battery Charger", so I would assume you can charge NiMH batteries. I haven't tried it - I have other chargers I use for my NiMH.
