Compared to standard AA cells, some types of NiMH recharegable
batteries have slightly longer bodies, and slightly shorter positive
terminals,   The shorter terminals don't make contact as well in some
recorders.  This is a known problem with the Marantz PMD660.  I
haven't read any reports of issues with the HD P2, but it's worth
exploring this possibility.
