You will be able to get 4.8 300ma. Nicads do not handle parallel circuits
very well and will become unbalanced. Radio Shack is Ok, but suppliers
focused on the RC market will have a very wide selection of batteries and
they are usually the higher quality Sanyo Brand. I highly recommend
Cermark Inc. www.cermark.com <http://www.cermark.com> . They have always
treated me very well. They have chargers and their prices are very
competitive.

PS: As far as batteries go, while at Radio-Shack I saw some small
package size 2.4V 300mah rechargeable batteries for cordless phones.
Each was much smaller than two AA batteries. If a way could be
found to
recharge them, and they were hooked in series (parallel?) would they
serve to provide the 4.8V 600mah wanted by the electronics?
