hi, does this have 3.0amp batteries

Yes, blue Makita have the 3 amp/hr batteries. Certain white tools come with the compact 1.5 amp/hr batteries. Most of the Makita tools will work with either size. Certain saws, and grinders will only except the larger battery.

Yes they are the larger size and you get 2 of them. They last such a long time that I chose to purchase the swivel head flashlight so I can use the other battery or it would just sit there for days before I needed to charge them.

Don't know. I don't use the battery that came with it. I do know it pulls 1.6Amps at brightest, then 0.8 Amps, then 0.4 Amps and it jumps around on the 4th final blinky setting.

Yes it does. I haven't used it with AA batteries yet, but it does have that option.

I have this, and yes it comes with the larger 3.0Ah batteries. Highly recommended by the way. The variable speed for the impact driver is a very nice feature, and the build quality is professional grade.

NO,3 triple A batteries and a special rechargeable battery only. The tailcap switch is the weakest part, Mine failed, I don't think it's worth the price of new batteries ! Donald Biddix

I believe it does according to the manufacturer's manual. I only use it for 18360 batteries.

There is a metal stop that is designed to prohibit use of 1.5 amp batteries. I believe all 3.0 amp Makita cordless tools have this feature.

It does not come with batteries. It requires three. Any AA batteries will work, rechargeable or otherwise.

Yes it came with 3 batteries. It did not work when I got it and I had to do some work on the contact spring to get it to work. Also had to adjust the set screws to make the beam point on target.

It does come with batteries but I haven't opened it up to see what kind of batteries they are.

The one I have uses 3x AA batteries. I'm not sure if there are different models.

Yes, but you have to purchase a special charger. It's not worth it. I just bought 3 extra batteries instead.

Yes; 3 AA batteries. Great weather radio; this model works perfect all the time.

yes mine did come with batteries but they are useless. spend the extra bucks & get lithium batteries. they last a long time.

Yes it does, but not the batteries. I Recommend you buy two sets (6 batteries) due to the amount it uses. You'll always have a set ready.

There is, but I was unsuccessful in getting one that works properly. I found a 3V 500mW or mA (i forget) but it produced a large buzzing sound when turned on. So it may only use less Amps or more Amps, such as &lt;500mA or 1000mA (1A) repectively. In the end I stuck to batteries as I realized that these were only 20 bucks and Ill invest in a better set down the road.

Yes It does. 3 Cell Internal Battery that is not changable by User. 3 Cell External Battery that could be replace by User.
