Best battery
You can't beat the Motorola battery.Here's why: It's a 4.5v battery, whereas AA size NiMH batteries are 1.2v, providing only 3.6v total.Using NiMH AA batteries will only give you 1 or 2 bars of battery strength and run out after just a few calls.Alkaline AA are great, but you'll throw them away every 6-8 hours.The Motorola NiMH delivers the full 4.5v necessary and lasts a whole day.Definitely worth the price....

This can be done a lot cheaper
Instead of purchasing the conversion kit and a spare battery(total of $80) you would be better off sticking with the AA versionand of the radio, and blowing $30 to $40 on a NiMh charger and eight batteries.This combination gives you over 30 hrs of operation on three AA size NiMh batteries vs. only 11 hrs with the Motorola kit. This way you will also have rechargable AA batteries available for flashlights, cameras, games, toys, etc......
