Rechargable D cell (and other size rechargable batteries) batteries are
lighter weight than alkaline batteries and you can recharge rechargable
batteries and use them many,many times.With a 12 volt DC to 120 volt AC
inverter,you can use a battery charger and recharge the batteries from a
car battery.

Too bad most Rechargable D cells are C-cells in D-cell cases, at best. I
have noticed a disturbing trend where AA rechargable NiMH cells have a
higher capacity than the D-cells.
