I don't know exactly what Radio Shack sell, but from a look at their web site it appears they don't stock anything suitable. The Joye Stick takes a 3.7v 10440 lithium ion battery. Although this is the same size as a AAA, it works at a higher voltage and AAA's are not suitable. Rechargeable li-ion batteries are speciality products and not often carried by general retailers, in my experience anyway. Many of the e-cig suppliers will have 10440's though, as would specialists like Battery Junction.

What Papa L. says but as a cautionary note because you're trying different batteries - ONLY use rechargeable 10440 types. Since the Joye stick has it's own internal charger - you can damage that and the battery if you were to try a non-rechargeable battery in the Joye Stick.
