My husband is wanting to bring rechargeable batteries for our camera, dive lights and CD players (AA, C, D) and is wondering if the recharger will be compatible with available electricity overseas. Dive sites under consideration are Cozumel (Mexico), Roatan (Honduras), ABC Islands (Venezuela?) and Cayman Islands.
Another thread came up with this website. Thanks!

Cayman Islands is listed as 120 volts and 60Hz, which is on the money, but Mexico has 127/60. Will we need any adapters/converters? Is it practical to use rechargeable batteries, or more time and trouble than they are worth?
Are there any problems transporting batteries to and from overseas? (Yes, we will be removing batteries from anything going in check-in luggage.)
