I use Lithiums, the non-rechargeable kind. Lighter
weight, etc.
If weight not a factor I use an external battery
pack (ten AAs).

It has the output power mod (changed 2 resistors) but with 6 internal 1.5V batteries the 1.4Watt output power is just too low for me. Be for the batteries are dead I'll be running QRPP. I want around 13V which give me 3Watts, but I really want internal batteries.
