Tar Matt imho Sanyo Eneloop AA Batteries are the best AA rechargables you can buy, looses only 10% in one year on the shelf. lasts absolute ages in my spekky. these Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
norney hurtmore Posted December 5, 2010 Share Posted December 5, 2010 all the transmitters i've had have been 12volt (8 x 1.5v ) most re-chargeable batteries are only 1.2volt (8 x 1.2 =9.6v) my kill switch kicks in when my voltage drops below 10v most failsafes come in at about 9v doesnt leave a lot of scope on a fully charged rechargeable battery i take advantage of the "buy one get one free" deals from local supermarkets for my AA batteries Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heathfoxcroft Posted December 5, 2010 Share Posted December 5, 2010 I use 4 of these in my spekky and get a good 5-6 hours out of them, would probably get more but i get twitchy and call it quits when they start showing low, i would suggest 8 of these depending on your gear they will charge in the transmitter too. http://www.rossmod.c...rgeable_AA_4_pk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
