Wireless phone battery

Hello,
My question may seem silly, but I prefer to ask.
I have a cordless phone from LOGICOM, model Odelia 452. The batteries don't last long, and my handsets keep ringing when I'm on a call. I've searched online, but I can't find a battery for this model. Actually, my battery is really two rechargeable batteries: "ni-mh LR03/AAA 600mAh 1.2V".
My question: Are these the same rechargeable batteries that can be found in stores for digital cameras? What does the 600 mAh correspond to? And if I use a higher capacity, like 900 mAh, what will happen? Should I leave my handset on the base or is it better to put it back when the battery is drained?
Thank you for your answers, as I'm afraid of being without a phone.

The capacity in mAh represents the intensity of the battery discharged over one hour. It is expressed here in milliampere-hours.
In short, the higher the mAh, the longer your battery (a cell is a battery) will last. So more autonomy :)
The voltage, on the other hand, is expressed in volts, and must always be the same if you change batteries. For AAA batteries, it is 1.2 V.
That said, it also depends on the battery charger or at least the base of your cordless phone. The device is designed to recharge batteries of a certain capacity.
So be sure not to take an intensity in mAh below what you had before. (Otherwise, excess energy and deterioration of the equipment)
The only risk you have in buying batteries with higher capacity is that they may not be charged to 100% (if the battery is 500 mAh and the charger charges the batteries based on time, for example, stopping the charge at 400 mAh, there will be a little energy missing but nothing serious. If the base is designed to control the charge, as is often the case, the battery will charge fully!)

There are no silly questions since I was asking them too!
So, thank you also for asking the question!
