I've put it off too long. I need to start using rechargeable batteries. I'm tired of buying new batteries for my wireless mouse, and I need something to get for my girlfriend since she has a wireless desktop package.

The problem is I can't seem to find good ones. I bought some reasonably good brand at Radio Shack a couple years ago, and the stuff just doesn't work. I'll put the batteries in the charger, plug it in the wall, and hours later the batteries won't work (yes, I was putting them in the right direction ).

So can anyone recommend a good charger and a good brand of batteries? I would assume the same brand as the charger, but I could be wrong.
