What's some good ones to get?

They're going to be used in a computer mouse (already have some for the real one) or two. Brand doesn't matter as long as they're good and they have to come with a charger.

Cheers.

Rayovac IC-3 are what's recommended for stuff like rechargable mice etc. Ratshack sells them under their own name too.

Self-charging mice are a better idea, but I guess you're stuck already. )

Hey, in case you didn't know, a lot of dollar stores carry closeout stuff like cordless phone batteries, and they are sometimes just 2 or 3 NiCd or Ni-Mh AAs in an enclosure. Great bargain.

I use both NiMH and Alkaline rechargables, in a Ray-O-Vac charger that takes 8 AA or AAA's or 4 C/D batteries. I use them in my AA mice and just about everywhere else I need AA/AAA's.

There's another 2 x AA/AA charger (The Ratshack branded version of the PS5 below) that's about half the cost too.

Energizer also has their version of the 15 minute charge batteries, but Rayovac has always been on the forefront of battery technology, so I stick with them. (They were the first to have rechargable alkalines)
