I would recommend ditching the batteries all together. A 5V cell phone charger should be fine to power it. That is 1.25V per cell which is about what NIMH cells run at, and they work in nearly everything. Only the pickiest of electronics don't like them.

Cool project though, I wanna see some pics.
