I try to be a very cheap individual, so needless to say, alkaline batteries tend to be expensive.
So I spent a good 5 hours doing all my homework.

EBL 6F22 9V 600mAh Li-ion Rechargeable Battery (2 Pack) +9 Volt Charger | eBay
for $12 shipped, you get 2 Lithium Ion 9 volt batteries, and charger.
These can be recharged 1200 times.
Great for the propointer, or any pinpointer taking a 9 volt. OR if you have a Tesoro metal detector and a pinpointer.
If you have a White's machine, many take 8 AA batteries.
8 Bay charger, $11.99 shipped.

Now..they do sell the EBL charger with batteries, HOWEVER the included batteries can only be re-charged 1200 times.
So instead...get the Panasonic Eneloop 8 pack, a little less capacity, but they can be recharged 2100 times, almost twice as much,

I paid $15.79 per 8 pack, but it looks like they are out of stock.
So for less than $40, you have a high capacity charging set up for both your detector and pinpointer.
Or less than $12 if you have a Tesoro!
