Energizer 2500mAh rechargables. Green + silver can't miss them...

Same here. Bought four packages of four AA batteries and have both the travel and fast chargers. Good amounts of power, fast recycle time, lots of spares.

Another Energizer 2500mAh user here. Very reliable. Left in my flash for a couple of weeks, still have plenty of power.

I find I charge mine and when I wish to us them, they're dead. As my NiMh batteries die I shall replace them with eneloop. If eneloop live up to their promises, fine. If not then they should still be usable.

Another vote for energizers. Lasts longer than any of the other brands I've tried. If anything, you're only going to spend $1 more per energizer battery than a generic.
