I am continuing my tests, using fully charged Duracell 2650 mah rechargeables (plenty of current, but still only 1.2 volt). I have also purchased a brick of 1.5 volt alkalines, just in case.

Hopefully other users will have additional observations and anecdotal evidence of battery usage & performance.

(Too bad the JBL does not have a "run-time clock", so we could determine how many hours the JBL will work per change or charge)
I'm keeping an eye on mine as well. Just got it, using the original batteries that came with it. I'm dying to get a set (8) of rechargeables, but I think for now, I'll stick with the regular alkalines until someone reports sucess with rechargeables.
