				I see this morning Amazon has a gold box special on Powergenix 1.6V rechargeable batteries.

 A recharger and 4 AA for $15.

 Their faq

 Is pretty generic, but does have a few tidbits.  From reading the list, I should know what self-discharge rates are for other batteries, and my gray is showing, but they cite PowerGenix batteries have a self-discharge rate equal of approximately 8  percent per month at room temperature. This is comparable to other  rechargeable batteries. 
 
 I'm tempted to try them out for cameras and GPS units.
 Anyone with any experience?
 I'm sure there will be comments...
