I've been using these NIMH AA's (http://www.trademe.co.nz/Electronics-photography/Batteries/Rechargeable/AA/auction-195522432.htm) in Ben's Reloader and these NIMH 9v (http://www.trademe.co.nz/Electronics-photography/Batteries/Rechargeable/Other/auction-195558922.htm) in my VLo and gun for the last couple of years.
Good price and being 2700mAh (AA) & 250mAh (9v) they last all day and some.
This seller has packs with varying quantities.

I have been using the Panasonic ones you can buy pretty much anywhere most of the season. They work fine.

Just remember the nature of rechargable batteries means no warning before they quit. They just stop

Here is a good article about batteries in hoppers that everyone should read...

Ive got one of those Dueydog 'Bone' Rechargable packs, it works pretty well and its lighter than the usual 6 packs and last a while. Only thing was I had to find a hobby 9.6V charger for it. Its pretty sweet tho.
