I am aware that you need rechargeable batteries. Looking for the best charger - supplied batteries combination. memomark-jimmy, sorry, couldn't get the link to come up but thanks. Paul

There was a rumor going around that rechargables did not have enough voltage for Wii remotes. Ever hear of that? Does it make any sense?

true, some things don't like the 1.2v rechargables and need the 1.5v alkalines. there are true 1.5v rechargables out there, you just have to look.

as far as what charger, depends on teh battery. you cannot recharge a Li-Ion in some Ni-Cad/NiMH chargers. but most all abtts will charge in one rated for Li-ION.

I guess I would like someone to recommend a specific battery charger + rechargeable batteries that I could purchase. Thanks, Paul

i have the Energizer charger it holds up to 8 AA/AAA at a time,i bought mine for the same reason all the kids toys and for the camera,been very pleased with it had it for a year now .oh the model # is PS3.

I've been very happy with the Maha MH-C9000 I bought almost a year ago. Seemed like the best I could find at the time. Thomas Distributing carries a lot of chargers and batteries.

Thanks people- now I have some chargers to look at. The energizer sounds pretty good. Paul
