can i use two KLIC-8000 or CRV3 batteries instead of the four NiMH in the box?

NO the Z981 has 4 distinct "holes" where the (4 AA size) batteries go. The KLIC-8000 or CRV3 are 2-packs that are packaged so that the 2 cells together cannot go into the AA battery sized holes.

you can put any AA size battery in it, its the mah which makes the difference as to how long the battery will last, obviously you can only put rechargeable batteries in a charger. please note if you have firm ware 1.2 do note upgrade to 1.3 as this will mess up your pictures, and there is no way back once you have upgraded

The way how the battery compartment is set up its incapable of using those type of batteries. It takes lovely pictures.

One will work. I use 2 125 amp marine batteries from WalMart and it has worked well.

I went to Batteries + and they gave me (2) two CR123A batteries that work great. Bought a 6 pack.

Rick: Technically, yes. You could make a spacer the same size as a CR123 and use it and the battery together to run the light, but using two CR123's will be 6v, when the flashlight needs 3.7v. The batteries the flashlight needs are rechargeable though, so it's almost a better option anyway.

I don't know for sure but I did find this information from another poster. "The battery I found in my units: Troily 1.2 volt 80mAh Ni-MH button battery There may be different battery manufacturers used depending who got the battery supplier contract on that batch. The important info is the size and power. The battery has a connecting "fork" so you will need to solder 2 points to replace the battery, it's as easy as soldering gets. I believe I've seen the battery available for about $1.50 on the web. Do not open the unit unless you are prepared to replace the solder-installed battery. There is nothing in the unit that should be played with, and there is a lead that is easy to break that will require more soldering should you break it."

It's not recommended as the charge and discharge rates are different for the two batteries. It's best to use two batteries of the same capacity.

Alan: You'd have to check with the manufacturer because I'm not sure if the charging rate is the same for NiMH and Li-ion technologies. But I wouldn't use NiMH 9v batteries anyway because of their relatively high self-discharge rate. I want to be sure that when I need the battery, I won't find it dead.

There are more than one model number in this line of drills. The drill I have is model number 691796; and the battery pack I have is #691798. It may not be available as a replacement (There should be a law against this!!!), but almost anyone can change out the old batteries with newer type NIMH batteries for a much-better battery pack. The instructions are available on the Web! Just Google it! For about $30, one can change the old batteries out with NIMH ones, and you will have real bragging rights with your friends/relatives. By the way, the battery pack is only held together with four Phillips-head screws. The instructions are well-written, so follow them! There are more than one model number in this line of drills.

It uses the 18650 3.7V. I may accommodate two CR123's if I recall correctly. Hope this helps.

Maybe, maybe not. Depends on what you put them in. They are two different technologies with different characteristics. I just bought some SR-44 batteries because I was desperate and they were all I could find for my voltmeter, but they do not work in this particular circuit. For other devices they may be interchangeable. It's best to use what the manufacturer of your device recommends.

Takes 2 standard AA Alkaline Batteries -but- Rechargeable NiMH Batteries will work too.

It will work with NiMH I think but you need a castle link to turn the low voltage cut off. Might want to think about getting some lipo batteries. You won't regret the decision.

I use a small one purchased from Radio Shack. One of the options is a 3V lithium which is what the CR2 is.

NO. The NiMH & NiCD batteries charge differently then the Li-Ion batteries.

Unless something has changed when I wasn't looking, the description "CR123A" defines the physical size of the battery while the 800/1000mAh only describes the internal capacity available in that package size. So, Long story short, YES! the original 800mAh battery can be replaced with any other battery identified as a CR123A battery, regardless of the internal capacity.

(Note that a 3.6v NiMH (Nickel-Metal-Hydride) "battery" (see accompanying image) is really a battery PACK with three 1.2v NiMH batteries internally wired in series.) The answer to your question is absolutely "yes" if it's the ONLY battery pack used by the device at a given time -- the result will be an increase in operational life following each battery charge cycle of up to as much as 50% compared to an equally new or equally used 3.6v 800-mAh battery pack. Of course, if you're replacing an old and much-used 800-mAh pack with a brand new, fully charged 1200-mAh pack, the improvement in the operating time of your gadget will seem even greater to you!

I have only chagred 1900mAh NiMH AA and AAA batteries, 8, 4 or 2 at a time. Can't say for 3500mAh though, should work as others have said once it's a NIMH batt.
