I absolutely love rechargeable batteries. It's awesome not having to go to the store every month and buy a ton of batteries, and have the cashier look at you like you're killing an endangered animal xP

Yeah, a while ago there was a sale and i bought some rechargeable wiiremote battery packs and the charger for $20 instead of $30. Love em, I don't think they've paid for themselves yet, but it's just a matter of time!

I don't have any of those newfangled games with their battery-powered remote controls, but I use rechargeable batteries for my digital camera. Whenever I'm going somewhere to take pictures, I just pop a few in and keep extras in my pocket. They don't last long, but they are certainly worth it.

No, I don;t. I know I SHOULD, and it would make my life a hell of a lot easier, but I don;t. Im far too lazy to buy rechargable batteries. And yes, I know that I go to the same store they sell rechargables at to buy NORMAL bateries.

Apparently too lazy to edit your own posts too. Christ man, tighten it up.Rechargeables are a'ight. I generally prefer just having the gadget with the batteries attached to it and recharging it there, I don't have time to unscrew all that plastic and screw it back on later, hoping to whatever deity is protecting me that I don't lose all of those STUPID LITTLE SCREWS.NO! YOU KNOW WHAT?! I HATE RECHARGEABLE BATTERIES.

I kinda want one of those pads where you put your things on it and they automatically charge just from being placed on the pad! it would help since I have so many things charging right now, DS, PSP, phone... ok, maybe not THAT much, but they're taking up space with all of their wires!

I kind of feel like there's something inherently wrong with rechargeable batteries. It's like, I don't know, gasoline that can be burned twice. Once something's been used, you really shouldn't be able to use it again.

I don't. Too much hassle in rechraging the things, when you can just buy more. We already need to charge phones, mp3s, and other personal gadgets regularly. I would rather not add to the list.Besides, I heard that* rechargables can go out quickly without warning. I like to know when my batteries or appliances will die out, so that I can deal with it beforehand.*too lazy to google/wiki to confirm the truth, as you can see here.

i would like to use them but i never get around to buying them. it would save me the hassle of finding new batteries when my wii mote dies or one of my tv remotes die.

I do use the rechargable packs for my controllers and CD player. It saves me tons of money and I don't need to buy as many batteries each year.

No, I don't use rechargeable. I don't need batteries that often though, and I'm really too lazy to bother recharging them.

I did use rechargable batteries before like energizers. Though it does save you from getting new batteries but you got to keep recharging it and sometimes you forget to.

I actually used to own 2 rechargable packs for my wii motes, but they stopped working after half a year.the Xbox 360 rechargable battery packs still work after 2 years!I just hate having to go to the store to get batterys, if my dad does it he buys cheap Meijer batterys (A store that operates in 3-4 of the 50 states in the USA)

I only use rechargable batteries when I have no other choice. So far, only 2 instances of that: one is my DS Lite, the other is my 3DS.
