Okay, it's been a while since I preached about batteries. But only buy IMRs that explicitly state they have "Circuit Protection". The non-protected ones need to be conditioned and monitored. They're not kid friendly. You can burn your house down if you're not paying attention to unprotected cells. This is no joke. I'm very, very seriously. Protected cells only !

That being said, here's a nice little kit with 4 IMRs and a charger for $15. And this one is 2000mAh, which is excellent for an IMR. Search Amazon.ca for them. I can't do that from here.

Regardless of which ones you end up buying, look for batteries with the highest mAh. The larger the number, the more capacity they have, the longer they'll run between charges.

You'll also need some dummy batteries like these. I found a bunch of UltraCells cheap last year, but I don't see any inexpensive ones on Amazon right now. Search for "AA dummy batteries". Any kind will do.

Happy hunting !
