    Rechargable batteries? for warp and revy?

    Does anybody use rechargable batteries for their agd warp feed and/or 12 volt revy?

    If so have you encountered any problems? Or does it work like a charm and save you money?

    Let me know what you use.

    I use Rayovac Rechargeables for my Warp and Revies. Never had a problem. Most of my fiends use the same batteries for their revies.

    Many of the folks on this board use Plainview 9.6V NIHM for their Warp Feed as it spins faster, longer than normal 9V. I have not tried this battery as I've had no problems with my current set up.

    I've never had a problem with rechargebles. I try to recharge them after every use.

      As long as you recharge after use and remember to disconnect them from the warp when not in use... they work great.

      The warp will drain batteries when in storage... if the battery is left attached.

          Me too. I currently only use them in my warp. I am planning on getting more for everything else.

            The Rayovacs and the like are rechargeable 100's of times.
            The Plainviews are a much better battery and can be recharged THOUSANDS of times. Hope this helps...

              I was just reading about the Plainview "9 volt" batteries. They are rated at 1700mAh. If I'm correct that is 1.7 amps. An eMag needs 3 amps. All that being true, two of them should be able to run an eMag. Some battery!

              Edit: after thinking about it I decided to double check the figures. 1700 mAh didn't make sense. They are 170 mAh. That is still good for a "9 volt". Four of them would power an eMag.
