eblade vs rechargeables

[mr15bps]

just a quick one, its probably been asked b4 but just wondering if the eblade runs ok on rechargables? they are uniross PP3 150mAh 8.4 V Ni-MH ... what are your views, im figuring it wont perform well as the eblade prefers alkaline batteries but what aree your experiences/ideas

not advisable
They cannot cope with the high drain
There are some rechargables in the US that would cope, but most of those sold in the UK aren't worth the expense

There are rechargable batteries outside the UK that are suitable for use with an eblade and cost about £8 each and £25 for the charger. I have talked to guys in the US that use them and they work fine. They last roughly 2 days of play on average usage, but basically what you do is use 1 day and charge over night, then use them the next. These can be recharged upto 1000 times so work out the maths. It's just a shame that nobody rtetails them over here.
