I'm moving to the UK next month and I want to bring my digital camera from the US. I usually use rechargeable AA batteries and can't find any info on whether AA batteries are used in the UK. Is there some voltage difference I should be aware of? So, just to clarify, are AA batteries readily available in the UK? No there isn't AA cells no matter where they are used are still AA cells BUT the charger on the other hand must be europe compliant. In england the voltage is 220 not 110 and therefore you may need a travel adapter or a compliant charger to charge yoru batteries. Ni-Mh batteries are in my oppinion the best and cheapest batteries for use in cameras because they fit well with a digital cameras energy needs and they don't suffer from any memory effects. Many cameras also support CR-2 Lithiums which are great long lasting batteries but for the cost are only really a good idea if you need to use the camera all day and for one day. AA batteries are available everywhere on planet earth, they are the same voltage only the Mamp's change - dont worry about that
even rechargables
