Batteries & Chargers
Ziggy runs off 24 AA NiMH rechargeable batteries for the servos and one 9V NiMH rechargeble for the OOPic. NiMH have the best performance when running Ziggy, giving both high capacity and no memory effect on recharging. You could run Ziggy off alkalines, but at 24 batteries a pop it can get kinda expensive...
You can purchase these batteries and chargers directly from Thomas Distributing if you would like to save a few dollars.
