size AAs. I'll basically be running the unit off of aircraft power, and
the batteries are just for emergencies.

Use alkalines. By the time they're dead, the unit will be obsolete, if
it is running at all.

well


if you WANT high capacity batteries that can take the heat and have lots of
umpph and store well....

Look for LITHIUM chemistry based AA's

they have 2 to 4 times the capacity of regular alkaline AA's.....

Ive seen em at Walmart etc.....but they are usually on the counter, not with
the rest of the batteries....

And they cost 5 buck for 2 (4?), give or take a bit....

But hey, for emergency backup....whats a few buck here or there compared to all
the other BIG costs you have

take care
