NiMH rechargeables - although are the current state of the art high capacity/drain batteries -
often do not work well with LEDs because of their lower voltage of 1.2V compared to the 1.5V of standard alkalines.
But how do the Rechargeable Alkalines such as the RayoVac work out in LEDs?
They appear to be rated at the standard 1.5V and and said not to self-discharge, so are good for long term use/storage.
They are advertized at 100 charge/recharge cycles - so would seem to work out more economically than disposables.
They are available in the standard AAA, AA, C and D cells

Any comments?
