Thought I'd open this in a fresh thread specifically about batteries for earlier Pentax DSLRs.

I got an idea from the discussion of NiMH and Lithium AA batteries in the other thread, and wanted to follow up on it.

There are no Lithium Ion AA batteries, but the *ist-D can also use CR-V3 batteries and those ARE available as Litium Ion rechargeables. Plus, they're 3V(+) rather than the 2.5V(-) you get with a pair of NiMH AAs.

Has anyone used these? The only drawback I foresee is there doesn't seem to be a charger that can do 2 of these at once.

Even better would be a charger that could do 4 at once, since the *ist-D/BG-1 takes 4 of them is you load it with CR-V3s.
