hello strawb..

i dont konw if its the best, but theres a Kodak Recharchable battery in Lulu Hypermarket for sale at 40 dhms i think? Buts very cheap and quite reliable.. The package includes a charger and 4 pieces of batteries. But still ask the others what are other Brands.. There might be better ones..

@Slicc that brand is good enough and it's cheap, @ strawb try also Energizer rechargable battery, also ask jingle for the Failsafe incase you run out of battery on you RX it will automatically shutoff.

i use rechargeable batteries for my RX before but went back to using alkaline batteries..
alkalines last for more than 3 months if used properly = switching it of while not in use..

i got tired of recharging the batteries every week.. and they're so heavy too.. unless you're using a DX3 or a 4PK.. Ni-Mh looses it it's charge even when it is not in use..

maybe you can try a 3-cell li-po batt (if i'll fit) 11.1V..


just my thoughts..

by alkaline are these the normal non-rechargeable batteries which are regularly available in stores?
