Forgive my ignorance but a previous answer for another question said that it took 4 D batteries.

joepro · Answer

it does not require 4 d batteries.. it comes with its own proprietary rechargeable battery which the solar panel charges.. i own this.. but it has slots for two of those batteries but only comes with one so you would have to buy the second one for longer lighting time in the dark.. also does not hook up to smart lighting unless you buy the hub seperately..

Hi Majorlagg.

Good question! No, the Ring Smart Lighting Solar Floodlight does not require 4D batteries. The Ring Smart Lighting Solar Floodlight is powered by a Ring Quick Release Battery Pack (1 included, can hold 2) and is charged with a Ring solar panel (included) or Micro USB charging cable (included). 
Place the solar panel in direct sunlight to recharge and store power. Learn more here: https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/360041236392-Ring-Smart-Solar-Floodlight-Information.
