High capacity NiCads or NiMH AA cells, assuming there is no
manufacturers' warning about using them.

The device stops working or flash recycle times get real long.

Most NiCads and NiMH are good for about 1000 cycles if used properly. 
That's about two years and nine months if you recharged them every day.
