- off to go look for a good deal on NiMH's.

When I got my Kyosho Mini-Z I went on a quest to find good (high mAh) NiMH batteries. One site is Greenbatteries. They are one of the few places I've found that sell 1800 mAh AA cells for around $3.75/ea, and AAA cells for around $2.50/ea. Another one that is a little cheaper is Thomas Distributing. They have 1800 mAh AA PowerEx cells for about $3.72/ea, and 700 mAh AAA PowerEx cells for about $2.39/ea. I use them in the Mini-Z, my digital camera, wireless mouse/kb, wingman cordless rumblepad, and all my remotes. It's a good idea to get a good 1-hour charger as well, which you can usually find for around $30.

Anyway, hope that helps....
