Yes I'm using Eneloop low self discharge NiMH cells in my device. The voltage seems to be steady at 3.9volts after it drops from an initial 4.4volts. It seems to work fine. As I've not used non rechargeable cells I don't know how they compare. Their capacity is nominally 1900mA hours. Unfortunately I don't know if they were completely charged when I inserted them, but from my limited experience in using them I should think that might be the capacity figure to use. One advantage of rechargeable cells is that they can always be inserted fully charged! They certainly appear fine for my use to date.
Thanks Mike
