Can I use my NiMH 1.2V 2700mAh rechargeable batteries with this?

I'm not sure about the 2700mAh but you can certainly try it. I use NiMH 1.2V 2000mAh rechargeable batteries and they work fine. However, they don't last but 10-12 days or so. This particular product eats batteries so using rechargeable's is the only economical way to power them. Having to change the batteries so often, I have the battery pack hanging outside my large vase to get to it easier. I can do this because my display sits up against a wall and the vase hides the battery pack. If you plan to have this display "out in the open"... not up against a wall, you will find yourself rearranging your entire display every time you have to change the batteries. I say this because there are only 3 branches and they are really a "filler" for a fuller arrangement. I do like them and they are a nice addition to my arrangement.

Yes, this can work with Nimh battery but we do not provide the same with Otoscope. If any further query please dont hesitate to ask me. Thanks

YES IT WILL WITH NiMH. A battery is still a battery no matter how the voltage is produced. If not found locally, go to www.BatteryMart.com They carry everything in batteries.

Yes. It will charge both NiMH and NiCD batteries, either one at a time or up to eight at a time. You can even mix NiMH and NiCD. Just don't mix them in the same slot.

I believe the other two don't know what they are talking about. NiMH batteries hold a charge at about 1.5v when topped off. It should work fine. If this thing doesn't work with NiMH batteries, it would be the first thing I've EVER seen which does not work with NiMH.

Yes, as long as the batteries are AA or AAA NickelMetalHydride (NiMH).Do not put there NiCd, LiIon, Alkalines, or any other type of battery, just NiMH

I have not tried using rechargeable batteries for this but some user manuals will tell you not to use them even though i'll use them anyhow and they work fine. Alkaline batteries are generally at or around 1.2v at 50% while rechargeable NiMH's hold steady at 1.2 volts. It might also be that this manual was meant for the NiMH batteries that you have to recharge no matter what every couple of months or so due to the heavy drain those batteries get. LSD batteries like the Eneloops might work fine, but whether this device will handle the 1.2 volts/rechargeable batteries is really up to whether you give it a shot and see for yourself.

Hi, No, it won't. You can use only 1.2-1.5V AA rechargeable or non-rechargeable batteries. Let us know if you have any other questions. Thanks!

No - according to the back of the original package, only Ni-MH batteries should be used in the charger. I hope this helps!

I just looked at my battery and it says: 2.4v 500mAh NI-MHBatteryplus.com sells them if you have one local, expensive though. Radioshack should sell them. However, you can check with Amazon in their search area using "2.4v 500mAh NI-MH". Make sure you check the reviews on them.

Yes, the battery needs to be charged before use. Select a charger that is rated to work with NiMh batteries and follow the manufacturer instructions.

Yes, you can use a 40V 4Ah G-MAX battery in place of a 40V 2Ah G-MAX battery.

Yes you can, ive been using mine with several brands of AAA NiMh. Amazon basics work well.

Yes it will work, but if you have brushless (Velineon) setup, I would highly recommend LiPo batteries instead of NiMH.

Yes, two of them. Make sure they're alkaline as it likes higher voltage (NiMH has a tendency to not work well)

Megabatteries.com offers 2200 mAh 7.2 V NiMH battery packs which fits my tanks. However, there is no connector. So, you need to cut the connector off the existing battery pack's wire and connect it to the NiMh's batteries bare wires. I assume you would choose soldering for the best connection. Amazon offers a 7.2 V smart charger for these battery packs, but the connector is not a match so I just use the included alligator clips and it charges just fine. Smart chargers are useful to prevent overcharging. I don't have this exact tank. Rather I have this tank... http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002K4TSIE/ref=oh_details_o05_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 I am assumming the battery packs are identical and are both 400 mAh NiCad's. These tanks are very very close. Verify the 400mAh capacity of the tank listed for this review to make sure it matches mine exaclty ( 6 AA NiCad's side by side) If any one can tell if these battery packs have a standard Tamiya connector, I would like to know.
