Would it be ok with the lower voltage of NIMH rechargeables? I really dislike primary batteries.

Edit: found the answer.

> 2x AAA rechargeable (NiMH) batteries only puts out 2.4V which is, strictly speaking, not enough for Badger. However, in our tests it keeps on truckin' down to an input voltage of 2.05V (without the LED), so if you want to use rechargeable batteries that should be fine.
