so i bought some really cheap crap batteries off ebay -
the batteries that came with it are 2500MAH
the charger only displays times on the manual up to 2000Mah (5 hours)
i charged it for 7 hours yesterday, then too them off charge
now when i use these cheap crap batteries theres no sign of anythiing on the screen,
i decided to try some old batteries from my tv remote, got loads of very faint lines on the screen
ni-mh 1,2v batteries correct or is it because of the crap batteriy/chrger
i might try me mates charger
 
erm nope not yet
cant seem to find some
ill juyst but a good charger 2 day
a good make
just tried some nearly fresh batteries and its start up
but then when it was loading, got couple black lines and faded off the screen
now its going wierd wen it loads up - can gp2x use alkalines?
 
it "can" but alkalines cant give enugh current, so they usaly dont last longer than 10minutes and dont work stable.

Depends, actually. Cheap Duracell alkalines while emulating gave me a couple hours last time.

It is better to invest in a good pair of rechargeables, yeah. Only $10 - 15 for two batteries and a charger.
