I can understand that - the voltage doesn't work out correctly.
For example:
My camera uses 4 AAs, with no option to add a fifth if rechargeable
cells are used. In alkaline batteries equates to 6V, but with
rechargeable batteries it's only 4.8V. A whole rechargeable battery
'missing' if you will. This means the camera will only take a couple of
dozen of shots, whereas with alkaline batteries it'll take well over 100.
That's why I utilise the "hand me down" method of battery
depletion. :-)
