does this come with a rechargeable base?

No. The thermometer itself does have the receptacle on the end for the plug - in recharger.

it uses regular batteries. it comes with a cover that serves as a stand up base (not a rechargeable one). It is the same thermometer I use in my office-I've wasted money on a lot of other thermometers for home use. It's quick and accurate. I can't recommend it enough

Yes, it does. Some reviewers preferred the rechargeable battery option. I find that, in general, rechargeables tend to not hold the charge for very long, so I opted to carry a package of batteries and change them every few days.

Hi Donna! It is not rechargeable, no. It does however; come with 3 batteries. I bought extra batteries from Amazon for a song. Don't buy them locally, kaCHING. :)

Yes, it does come with a rechargeable battery and the recharger. I did buy an extra battery for vacations.

Mine did not. I purchased two sets of rechargeable batteries to use with this. It works out very well.

The charge base doesn't, however Nyko makes a battery pack that is compatible with this base that does and it works very well. The wonderful thing about the charge base is you don't have to fight with the micro USB plug to recharge your controller. You plug the dongle in and it's the last time you have to deal with that stupid plug.

Yes, it comes with its own rechargeable battery and charger. It can also be recharged using an available USB port. Very handy.

Yes both the base and the other unit have charging batteries. It's the best!

Yes...comes with a basic charger base that you can also take with you on trips

Yes, the one I bought had all that. It is really nice and worth not having to deal with batteries. I've used it about 10 times without re-charging.

Yes it does, and they come with it. I can't tell you how long they last because our have not yet needed replacement (we've been using the device daily since October 2014). The batteries in the call buttons are fairly standard and can probably be bought anywhere there is a decent battery department. The base station is a different matter; that battery could be more difficult to find, although the detail that comes with the device does provide more than adequate instructions when it comes to batteries. This is a great device... If I could not find replacement batteries, I'd gladly purchase a new device rather than not having it!

It does not. In my opinion, it is beneficial to have the versatility to be able to use standard batteries. The battery makers all have rechargeable batteries now, so you could go that route and still have the option to use alkaline or lithium off the shelf batteries in a pinch. It's just a lot easier for me to carry extra batteries (although the run time on this lamp is very long) than carry a charger and worry about a power source. Just food for thought.

Yes it comes with one. It is rechargeable and does hold a charge for a pretty long time considering the amount of graphics and noise it makes. You'd think it'd suck the juice right out

No. It comes with a small recharge cord similar to a cell phone that plugs into the end. And I'm still not satisfied with the suction power of this model. I'm starting to wonder if I got a decfective item, frankly.

Mine did come with a base. Brand new in its original box. I did not get this same style though.

It is a rechargeable battery unit. The base does plug in and the unit sits in the base to charge

Yes, it is rechargeable and the charge seems to last up to 5 hours of constant use or days of little use. I was really surprised at how long the charge lasted
