 Solar light batteries - Crankcase
Ok, I'm a cheapskate, but help me out? Knowledge, edge of.

Got a solar light, which has worked well for a few years. It cost about £40 I think at the time.

Now it's getting dim. Rather than spend another £40-£50, I took the cover off and it turns out it has easily replaceable AA batteries. They say they are 1000mAh 1.2V Ni-MH.

Amazon has loads of AA rechargeables, but at different numbers, like 2300mAh etc, for a few pounds.

Do the batteries HAVE to be 1000mAh or can I stick anything in there as long as it physically fits?
