I've had the same experience as you. The batteries _seemed_ almost OK, but the
CM did not work properly. I don't know if it was the period without batteries,
or the newly recharged ones that fixed it.
Yes, I've used rechargeable batteries since day one - no obvious problems. The
ones I use are 'Varta AccuPlus' from Clas Ohlsson (you are in Sweden, right?).
I think it's rather important that the batteries are 'equal', otherwise the
good ones just pump power into the bad ones instead of the CM.
What I find really stupid is the battery in the tower - why couldn't it be
powered from the PC?

| Hi all, I had the strangest problem with my Cybermaster the other day, or so I thought. Using nqc, communication seemed to be fine, but the last packet sent to the cybermaster would not get a reply. Using the Lego-supplied software, I could download (...)
