I use the rechargeable NiMH, like Engergizer. Last about 3 to 4 weeks in my 688. YMMV. I have an extra set that I cycle thru, that way the wife doesn't have a cardiac arrest when the remote is "down" during the 3 AM feeding. W/ 2 kids and a bunch of electronic toys, the NiMH batteries have come in handy. I can't imagine how many batteries we'd have thrown away in 3 years.
The one use tweak I've found is to add some minor delay (like 100 ms) between components and input changes in order to give some "slop", especially when a non-techie is waving the remote around when a new activity is started. Although, I've found that the Harmony's IR is pretty forgiving.
