Default Rechargeable AA Batteries

Hello Group,
I'm rather tired of burning through alkalines on my portable sets (not
to say that the 7600G & GR aren't easy on batteries) and I'm
interested in switching to rechargeables. I would appreciate any
recommendations. Not surprisingly my concerns are longevity and
reliability. Are NiMHs the way to go? I'm using NiMHs in an AOR
8200MkIII since they were supplied with the unit. Usage time between
recharging is not as impressive as I would have hoped for. But then
I've been spoiled by the Li-ion battery in the R20. Any
recommendations are most welcome.
