Sucking..

[Kitte]

up Batteries.

My new Vibe sucks up batteries like there is no tommorow. It works like a charm though and I was wondering about rechargeable batteries. Anyone ever use them in toys? How expensive are they? things like that....I have to think of something soon or I will just buy stock in energiser.

I used to use NicolColadium batteries from the local radio shack. They charge in four hours, they come in packs of four.... charger and batteries ran about $50.00 US. It is well worth it cause normal batteries are so expensive anyway.

I don't know about them rechargable batteries, but you can use me, if ya want, till you get some batteries. Or maybe not.

I used rechargeable in my CD player. They really didn't work that well. Maybe you could find a vib that plugs into the wall.

I use rechargeable batteries in all my electronic things. If you use them, run them down all the way before recharging them or else the battery will develop a 'memory' and only go that long. Seems to get shorter each time thereafter too. If you run them dry or almost to dry they seem to work great. I have used them for over three years with no problems in High drain things like my digital camera and cd player too. Matter of fact I use...Quest brand. They were a bit cheaper than eveready or other types. I think that the brand may have little or no difference to the battery. good luck with your toying around.

Good advice.

I have some Energizer NMH's. I have two sets of four, so I always have a set fully charged. My digital camera goes through a normal set of AA batteries in about 40 pictures...that gets very expensive considering that I take about 200 pictures a week.
