Best battery for ICOM handheld

[Flying High]

I want to get a long life battery for my handheld radio in the Pitts and get rid of the charger in the aircraft. Apparently you can get Lithium or Nickle Hydride batteries.

Any tips?

Because I don't fly all the frequently perhaps a battery that had a good shelf life and something I can leave with the wall charger pugged in all the time I'm not using it.Edited by: Flying Ant
