I have been using the GP brand of 1800 mah NiMh batteries in my E-10s and
FL-40s. I have 5 or 6 sets of them. I always leave my LCD off. So far the
record is 325 shots. This was outdoors with no flash. Indoors running the
built-in flash is still around 100.
The price was under $3 each. I think there is an on-line source for the GP
and the MAHA products. It is called Thomas Distributors. I do not have the
URL.
