The indicator doesn't work properly, but rechargeables work just 
fine.  Personally, I use Lithiums.  They are not rechargeable, but they 
last at least twice as long as alkalines, if not longer.  The battery 
indicator doesn't work properly with lithiums, either.

Jeremiah 29:11 - 14A
11For I know the plans I have for you," says the LORD. "They
are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope. 
12In those days when you pray, I will listen. 13If you look for me in earnest,
you will find me when you seek me. 14I will be found by you," says the 
LORD...
