I use the ogo with NiMH batteries for some time now. I have some normal
batteries for backup while the NiMH's are recharging. No problem except
if the batteries are low on fridays and I don't use the ogo during the
weekend then the lithium button cell is also drained due to the
shortcirquit of the batteries. So no problem if you check the batterie
state regularly.
