sound about rightPossibly due to the lower voltages, 1.2V on rechargeables versus 1.5V on alkalines. So going on the basis most use around 6 batteries it'll be running about 1.8V lower, which is enough to give low battery readings on a lot of equipment. I've seen similar symptoms on non electrical equipment with rechargeable versus alkalines.
