They do indeed make 1.5 volt LITHIUM rechargeable batteries in AAA and AA sizes. But you would faint at their cost. You can't make a canary sing baritone and nickel metal hydride is imprisoned at 1.2 volts per cell by the call of nature.
Tenergy for one, makes low self-discharging NiMH batteries at an expense of around a 10% loss in mah capacity.
There is a ton of garbage grade metal hydride batteries out there. I stick with eneloop and Tenergy.
And I also go with the Eneloop made in Japan, not china. Good deals from Costco.
