I tried both the NiMh batteries and the plain duracels. I agree NiMh is much better. With the duracells, you could hear the repetition rate slow down during the 5 second burst. With the NiMh, it kept going strong.

Vern - On the street, did you see a willingness of the bad guy to continue fighting after you turned off the juice? That is my concern about this weapon. What does a civilian do with the bad guy when you decide to turn off the power???

Thanks,
Dave
