I recently discovered that the MicroTrack 24/96 accepts voltages 
between about 4.5 and 6V (the AC adapter that came with my unit 
provides 6V). So, it would be possible to directly connect four AA 
cells (either alkaline or  NiMH) without any additional 5V voltage 
regulator. Here is the simple battery adapter that I assembled by 
using hot glue:
