I asked IFI that a couple of years ago about using a 7.2 NiCd rechargeable and they said it's a bit under powered and to go get a 9.6 rechargeable from RadioShack, the kind for RC hobbies. Then just splice a barrel connector in parallel to the connector on the rechargeable battery and *poof* your ready to go and you can still easily recharge it.
