Attention CVS shoppers, these things come with two AA batteries, slightly more than half of the 20 or more units I purchased had run down or dead batteries. The package is made so you can play with the camera in the store. If after pressing the "TRY ME" button the video hangs up, it's the batteries! Nothing wrong with the camera Save yourself some trouble and look for a charger at the same time. I have had good luck with a AA battery charger I found at BIG LOTS. It was made by a company called Digital. Small in size, held and came with two AA batteries. $5.99. The same charger was at Radio Shack for $14.00. The CVS chargers were a bit high. Most of the office stores, Office Depot, Office Max, Staples, have chargers on sale every week or so. Shop around!
