Yes I can. I recently bought from www.expanxe.co.uk rechargeable RAM batteries. Not your normal rechargeable type, as you would see from their web site. You need also a RAM charger. The issue has been extensively covered in " Batteries for flashguns" in MARKET WATCH section. If your flash guns max operating voltage is 6v then the Ram batteries work at that voltage 4 x 1.5v =6v, whereas the normal rechargeables are 1.2v giving a total of
4 x 1.2v = 4.8v. I will leave it up to you to decide which is the better buy and which can be recharged more times.
The length of time someone has a battery is not to be gone by, its the amount of use it has that counts.
