I can suggest to you the AAA rechargeable battery that I use. With one of them inside, I get around 50 hours in my Bose Quite Comfort 2's headphones.
It is the
ENERGIZER 900 mAh AAA.
This is a high-end mAh capacity for AAA's. They work like a charm.
You DO NEED to use the RECHARGEABLE BATTERY DISPLAY setting for it as this allows for the 1.2 volt parameter that all rechargeables run at v.s. Alkaline that run at a full 1.5 volts. If you do not use the proper display parameter, then of course you will not be getting an accurate usage and what's left displayed on the graphics bar. You don't get a longer-lasting battery by using the Alkaline (non rechargeable usage-bar setting) when using rechargeables.
If you live in the States, I know for sure that Wal-Mart has them in their battery display near the check-outs as that is where I purchased my set of four. Keep the plastic package they come in,...they make for a good carry case. Same for the AA packaging.
