Good to know thanks!

I agree 100%, NiMH cells (the standard for rechargeable AA, AAA, I even have some AAAA for certain tablet styli) have gotten so cheap, they’re sometimes cheaper than alkaline at first use! It’s insane.

If you don’t have a charger I’ve heard good things about the Ikea Stenkol one, cheap (5-12€ depending on country) but should be reliable. Ikea also sells the cells.

I agree, and despite maybe too many competing flavors it looks like a great recipe to pick up some tricks for a newly veg. So thanks :) and congrats I guess OP, you’re clearly skilled and unafraid lol
