My primary reason for using them is that they're less expensive than
non-rechargables in the long run, and my secondary reason is that I never have
to walk out the door with half-depleted batteries. My reason for using them
over Ni-Cads is the whole memory issue, but that's only because I got sick of
batteries that only took a quarter charge. I'm not above making an emergency
purchase of alkalines to power my digital camera if my NiMHs run dry, but I try
to make sure they're all nicely topped off before/during any major travelling,
and I use an AC adapter for home use.
