I have been using Rat Shack NiMH. 1800mAh(maybe 1850) and haven't had a problem with them yet. If I do, I will definately check out the links above. Those look nice.
Going to San Diego for vacation. +T for everybody.

It's a little overcast right now - hope it clears up for ya!! Enjoy your trip...
how long will each of those power an M1 for? (about)
Just bought the package with 2 sets of batteries. Not a bad deal to get a second set for $10. I am such a sucker for new shit.

They look like a good investment, how long do they usually last before they need to be charged?

Definitely a good investment - they'll pay for themselves in no time.
Depends on the device, obviously. I get 4-5 hours out of my 2000 mAH AA rechargables in my D100. I usually swap 'em out at set break though becuase I'm Mr. Power Paranoid.
Alright you guys talked me into getting them.
Anyone know if the charger that comes with that kit charges 9v's too?
I usally get a show(2-3 hours) out of the Rat Shack sets, but I am hoping I can push these enough to get through a full festival day on 2 sets. Wish me luck.

I believe the kits Mike referenced do not. But they have all different kinds of chargers and kits - check around the website and you'll find something to suit your needs.
One thing to keep in mind: most 9v chargers don't float charge, that is they won't auto-trickle/shut-off when the 9v is fully charged. Then again, things might have changed since I last looked into this a year or two ago.

Thanks for the info
