What battery does the Robin's Egg Wireless Vibrator use? If anyone knows the type of batteries in its remote, then even better. For reference, this is the most comprehensive list of batteries I know of. Thanks!

It says "Takes 1 N battery and 6 watch batteries (included)." there on the page... the N battery, at least, is there in your list.

Response by poster: Tomboko, I know. But as you can see on the comprehensive list of batteries I posted, there are TONS of watch batteries. You must imagine that if I took the time to link to the product, and to that battery list, and post the question here, I probably read the product page already.

Best answer: Finally, a question I can answer with (some) authority! The egg takes six medium sized watch batteries that say 76+, the remote takes an "23A 12V L1028".

Response by poster: Thanks, crabintheocean. Are you sure about the "23A 12V L1028" remote battery? It appears to be a 12V battery, and different from the N battery listed on the product page.

Anyway, you probably actually just looked at the battery inside the remote, so at this stage things are a bit confusing...

Apologies, OP. Since you didn't mention the battery stuff from the product page, I imagined that you had not spotted it. I only meant to be helpful.

Response by poster: Tomboko, NP. The answers I got here are (as expected) already of much better quality than those at lousy Yahoo! Answers.

Response by poster: OK, the egg needs AG13 (also known as A 76 or LR44) "button cell" batteries, which you can find for extremely cheap at DealExtreme.
