Thermacell does now have a newer product that the batteries can be replaced. The model I have does not.

Yes, the batteries are replaceable.I got mine about 6 months ago, and I haven't replaced them yet because they're working just as new and great.

Yes the battery can be replaced. I'm not exactly sure which one it takes but it is a round one like a watch battery or old style hearing aid battery. Sorry not at home right now on the road.

Sorry! I have no idea. I haven't had mine long enough to replace the batteries.

I don't believe that the battery is replaceable. The package says that it is a rechargeable NiMH. You might be able to get at the batteries by removing the two small recessed screws near the bottom of the timer.

yes the battery can be replaced, and it is hard to open it up. I had to ask my husband how to do it.

Screwed in plate on the bottom indicates that it takes AAA batteries. So I assume they can be replaced.

From what I remember, yes, they are replaceable. They take 3 circular batteries that you can find at most super markets or home Depot stores.

If you want to get into taking the unit apart (disassemble it), then yes you can replace.. there is no 'open door' to change the batteries.. you need to solder-desolder the old (and new)-replace-- reassemble.. otherwise you can't..

I don't think so. The batteries are deep inside and would require "surgery" to replace.

no the batteries are not replaceable but they are cheap enough that you can just order more. BE CAREFUL though, because some styles ARE NOT REAL "shutter shades" but the stupid ones that just blink around the frame!!!!

There is no velcro/button opening to access the musical element, so I'm guessing that you cannot replace the batteries. I can't say for sure how long the batteries last, but we just bought it back in May and it's still working just fine. For this price, I think it's a great deal even if you can't replace them.

Yes, the battery is replaceable. Its the same as a fairly common cell phone batt. The owners manual gives instructions.

The battery can be replaced. Take a look at e.g. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zsnL7BTUH1o

There is no easy access to replace the batteries. But, as with all devices and tools that use lithium-ion or lithium polymer batteries, they are fantastic for a couple a thousand cycles of charging, minimum. That would mean you can charge them three times a say for several years without a problem. I can't see anyone using them that much. I hope the information helps.

Yes. But they're the watch style batteries if you need to replace em. Not rare, but not household type.

Yes, the rechargeable batteries are replaceable. It's a NI-MH battery pack with a connector as is used in cordless phones.
