Rechargeable Batteries

I'm in the process of looking into rechargeable batteries for my Visor. I'm going through Duracell AAAs at an alarming rate, which should be even more alarming if I would register Void. Right now I'm debating between Rayovac Renewals (rechargeable alkaline) or NiMHs. I'm leaning more toward the Renewals. Even though they can't be reused nearly as much, they can keep a full charge up to five years in storage (don't want to be in the middle of an important trade in Void only to have to wait six hours for a battery recharge!), and they "act" like regular alkalines (start at 1.5v and gradually drain to .9, as opposed to NiMHs which start at 1.2v but hold that voltage until is suddenly drops off at the end of its charge). Any words of wisdom would be appreciated.
