"They are fine in all my remotes."

I don't mean they are bad. I mean that putting a ~5$ battery set in a remote, in a place where you're going to recharge it perhaps once or twice, can't justify the premium over just buying cheap alkalines the two or three times, max, you'll be changing batteries. (Heck, the stupid cheap ones the remotes typically ship with tend to last a couple of years themselves.) They work, and if you're in my position where you already have them, use them, but I would recommend against buying NiMH of any kind explicitly for your remotes.
