good rechargeable batteries should out do the lot.

if you look around you can find AA batteries with huge mAh in them, I think like
in the range of 1200-2400 mAh. I think normal alkaline are under 1000, and the
ones you might be playing with are around 1000-1200.

You sould feel how heavy the 2000+ mAh batteries are !!!

not too mention they are rechargeable !!!
