You've answered you're own question really Phil! These are NiMH cells so are 1.2V. Are you sure that you cannot power your device with 1.2V cells? Most devices say they take 1.5V cells but work perfectly happily from 1.2V cells, I've yet to find a device that won't work from 1.2V cells for purely voltage reasons.
I doubt you'll find rechargable alkalines in the highstreet (though I could be wrong) so you'd probably need to find an online source.

Will it charge 2000mAhAA batteries?
I notice you sell duracell 2000mAh AA rechargeable batteries at Argos now. Can you confirm if this recharger can recharge this capacity battery as previous question suggests it can only charge up to 1700mAH?

Thank you for your question.
After looking into your query, I am sorry as I am unable to give a specific answer as it depends on what you use this batteries in. This product recharges the batteries to its full capacity so however long the batteries last in a product is how long they will last recharged. The manufacturer recommends that this charger is used with AA/AAA Duracell batteries.
