Alkaline batteries can be recharged. It is just their charging regime has to
be tightly controlled to prevent overheating and permanent damage.
I use a charger with a selection switch to choose between NiCd and Alkaline.
It charges upto 4 cells at a time. It is sold by SLM Inc of Gloversville, NY
12078 under the name of BuddyL. Cost was <$30.
My own experience with recharging Alkalines is that it generally works. The
cells are not recharged to new condition but they are recharged. 5-10
recharge cycles seem possible.
