Thanks for the info. Just wondering if playing the files at a higher
volume are causing the batteriesto prematurely fail. Also, these are
WMA files and not MP3; on the Creative Website one is supposed to get
more hours of play with the latter.

Playing at a higher volume will flatten the battery quicker.
It also wouldn't be very hard to check if the radio uses more power than the
player.
Perhaps someone could do a test for us all.

Personally I will not touch "dollar shop" batteries. As someone else said
"you get what you
pay for" and I wouldn't take the chance of them leaking in the player.
I've had 6 out of 12 leak before I got them out of the pack !

Rechargeables should work okay but not as long(1.2 v compared to 1.5v) but
who cares when
you can recharge it after.

Happy listening, Boozo
