Hi, I found a new battery at: www.batteryx.com/product/Document/012-PV001/012-PV001.asp?ProductID=1069 This is a new rechargeable Li-ion battery for use with digital cameras. they claim that you can at least double the number of shots compared to NiMH. The weird thing is that it only has a capacity of 2000mAh so I wonder about that claim. (But I understand that the capacity of different battery types can't be compared directly on the basis of mAh alone) I have no experience with Li-ion rechargeables (only NiMH) so I have some questions: Is this battery also usefull for continuous low-drain purposes? My GPS uses about 190 mA so usually I get about 10-12 hours of continuous usage from a set of 2200 NiMH batteries. Could I use this RCR-V3 longer than that continuously? I mean if it would do 15-20 hours that would be ideal! (Obviously an advantage would be that the RCR-V3 works better at low temps and has a longer shelf life when charged.) As far as I can tell from the photo's it will physically fit in my GPS. Regards, Vincent
