Bose vs. Lightspeed

Being a penny pincher, my solution many years ago was to invest
in 9 volt Ratshack Nickel-Metal Hydride RECHARGEABLES.
Although hardly cheap, I've not had to buy more batteries
in close to a decade.They paid for themselves in a month.
Perhaps you are doing likewise.

I tried, but it wouldn't power up the headset. The voltage when fully-charged
is a bit low, but when you consider an alkaline will power the headset until it
gets so low it'll hardly tickle the tongue, I don't know what's happening. It
might be that the impedance of the rechargeable is different than an alkaline
and the circuitry is thrown off by it.

My Flightcoms do fine, voltage wise, down to the last NiMH drop...
Another reason for me to be happy I didn't spring for the Denali??

FWIW...
Like you, I ran into a situation with a smoke alarm where a 9v lithium
would not work... and it's voltage could be higher than an alkaline.
My hopes were to go keep from changing batteries annually.
A 10 year lithium application seemed like a grrreat idea.
