apart from the fact that anything over 2000mah in ur transmitter is gonna last forever, i use normal non rechargeable duracells and i replace them, once a year?? thinking there may be something wrong with ur transmitter if u have to charge/change batterries often??

I'd recommend Vapex "instant" 2100 mAh. They hold the charge longer when not in use, so effectively last longer between charges than other higher capacity ones.
