Rechargeable batteries for the 201?

Hi. I recently got a 201 used on Reverb to replace my original Pocket Piano - which I unfortunately fried with a rechargeable 9v Lithium-Ion battery (1000 mA).

I always prefer rechargeables for cost effectiveness - but I’m wondering which AA rechargeables would be safe for the 201.

Thank you!

I used AA rechargeables for my 201 for awhile, but found it frustrating because it only uses three batteries - the chargers for those only work with either 2 or 4 batteries at a time and it was dumb trying to keep track of what was charged and what wasn’t. I switched to using a small USB power bank instead - the 201 runs waaaaay longer on a charge than with batteries, and the power bank has its own charge level indicator so there’s no guessing how much is left.

I love these USB powerbanks for my 201, 5moons, and other stuff. they’re rectangular so it’s easy to use Velcro or similar (I prefer 3m dual lock) to stick them to the side or back of a device.

BTW, Sgot, do you happen to be in Minneapolis? I think we know one another from way back (Jonathon W, Signal To Trust, Rat Salad etc). I live way out in rural MN now : )
