Can anyone advise how the 550 gets on with low self discharge Ni-MH AAs, especially transmitting which I guess needs quite high current for short periods? I'm heading to the US for a couple of days and am torn between picking up a 550AA for $200 or a 450L for $250. The extra $50 feels like a lot just for the lithium battery if AAs work fine! Only interested as a backup com unit so the nav features of the 550 aren't relevant to me.
Cheers,
Tim
