Hmmm! I'd of thought a company that uses batteries on a daily basis would
go in for rechargables?

They don't yet have a long enough life. The Micron UHF types I use just
about get through half a day (5 hours) on one PP3 alkaline. Anything less
would be unacceptable.

Then there's the problem of recharging perhaps some 50 PP3s per day across
the units.
