Rechargable 9v's

[mugged44]

Does anyone use rechargable batteries for their marker/hopper? Any good? Or not worth bothering with?

Cheers.

Not worth bothering tbh.
We pay so much for markers and the like, then try saving on the small things and will moan when things go wrong.

Just pay that bit extra and get good batteries

Kk, not so much the saving money, more the saving hassle keeping on having to go to shop buying 'em. . I'm lazy when it comes to things like that.

Thanks for the advice.

True, its not the money reason, its the fact that they dont output as high a voltage/amps whatever it is, as is needed constantly so will cause problems with your kit

i use rechargable AAs in my Reloader and its fine - lasts about 4 trainings/events - due to the reloader being able to run on 4 AAs the lower output from recharables it pretty much compensated

If you get teh right rechargeables...ie 9.6V and high mAh...then you will be fine..kinda like the pair i sold earlier....
