Hi,
··· Does anyone know any rechargable batteries (along with the recharger or recharging-circuit) that I can use to run a 2p40 along with two typical IC's and 2 LEDs? I need it to be light-weight (less then 20 grams).

    20 grams is very, very light weight. I suppose you should be looking at larger button batteries used for computer mother boards. But, you will have to work up your own recharging set up. Nonetheless, these can be recharged in place (as they are on a computer) or you can swap them out for recharging.

    There is a small 12V battery (the same diameter as a AA, but about half the length) -- but it is not rechargible and you would have to regulate it down to 5V (wasting a lot of its power in heat).
