[GeoStL] Re: Question about 2 Way Radios

We use rino 120/130 and Motorola radios. We use rechargeable batteries we 
bought at wallyworld they came in a 1hr rapid charger that has an ac plug in 
and car charger plug in. When were out caching we take the charger in the car 
and always have fresh batteries

  Sara, I use the Motorola T5920 with the rechargeable and get about 2 days of 
typical use, (on all the time except at night and several long winded 
conversations), and I can easily put in 3 AA batteries anytime if recharging is 
not convenient.

    Sorry for those of you who mat have already read this, it was included at 
the bottom of another post of mine and I think it got lost in the shuffle of 
legal discussion on FRS/GMRS.

    Now for my question.......For those of you already using the motorola 
radios, are you using regular alkaline batteries? Rechargeable AA's? or the 
rechargables designed for it w/the base unit?  And what is battery life on each?

    I saw the ones on sale at best buy and saw the rechargeable battery kit 
listed for $24.99.  The same radios with the battery set are similar in price 
at Amazon as the cost to buy them seperately at best buy.  Was just trying to 
decide which would be a better deal for me, especially since I'm horible about 
sending in rebate forms.
