Help!

Been trying to get my camera working to take some decent pics of kit I would like to sell but here is the problem,

Have a Toshiba t-10 digi cam, the lithium battery CR-V3 which came with it has run out, new ones are very expensive so thought about a mains adapter, although decided this is the wrong idea as I won’t be able to use it when im not with the computer, can rechargeable lithium batteries be bought? And the charger to charge them? Please help me out I don’t know what to do, normal AA's don’t have enough juice to work in the camera

Thank you

FRom what I can see you cant buy rechargeable Lithium cells...had a look at Maplin..they are the funny shaped ones like two short cells stuck together?
They are £10 from Maplin...mains adapter is a good idea..coz it will save the battery when you can use it..
Best bet is to phone someone like Jessops and ask them..not Dixons or people like that, I went into one that was selling me a camerea (they thought) and the young bloke had to read the bok to tell me what SLR meant!!

Bloody awkward things i found that duracells are the only AAs that would work in mine.

If you are gonna use AA's as spares use Ultra M3's....get some NiMh rechargeables.

okay, bought some 2300 mah aa rechargeables with charger, charging at the mo, only thing worried me is that rechargeables have a lower voltage so didnt think they would provid the 3v the lithium did, although they have a higher ampage , well we will see when they finish charging cheers for the help guys, Shep rang ravenscroft, very helpful people
