Batteries

I was wondering which battery is better, heavy duty or alkaline? I have been using heavy duty batteries in my remotes and they just arent cutting it. I find myself spending too much money on heavy duty batteries. I am beginning to wonder if the makers of heavy duty batteries are scamming people out of their money on false hopes of getting a good battery at a cheap price.

Ever consider using Nimh Rechargeables?

Thomas Distributing has some really good MAHAs. I use them for my digi cams and they last a long time. So they should be good for remotes.

Also, Japan has released new higher capacity batteries. When they arrive here, they will be more expensive than the norm.
