Depends on usage.

NiMH and NiCd will last significantly longer in high discharge rate devices, think digital cameras.

But, shelf life of alkaline is significantly higher because their self discharge rate is so much lower

A Blink, in order to be convenient, is not designed to be a high discharge device so rechargeable batteries won't last as long because they basically cannibalize themselves.
