> Using them to power your electronics helps conserve valuable metals used in making batteries Rant time: Except there's no shortage of metals used in batteries. And if there was a shortage the scarcity would cause the price to increase which would cause a search for more of the metal and/or substitutes. Hence the reason we've run out of no resources to date. Ironically using a resource actually makes more of it available. Think how much gasoline was available before anyone had a use for it.
