Can primary batteries be replaced by rechargeable batteries even though they are only 1.2 volts?
Yes, rechargeable batteries are ideal substitutes especially when your device has high power consumption such as MP3 players or digital cameras. Although alkaline batteries are rated at 1.5V, as they are being used, their voltage will continuously drop over time, actually giving them an average of about 1.2V. Alkaline batteries can drop down to 1.0V during use but rechargeable batteries stay at 1.2V most of the time.
