Does anyone know if this has any additional benefit to just buying 4 rechargeable AAA (increase runtime, decreased wieght, etc.) Also, what it the charge time?

Nope. I just finished disassembling one and the rechargeable power source is actually just 4 AAA batteries glued together. Save your money and buy a pack of standard rechargeables.

The benefit is that you don't have to keep buying AAA batteries, but there's no weight difference and I haven't noticed a difference in runtime either, so if you buy rechargeables it shouldn't make a difference.
