    Well, my battery is now down to 3 hours a charge from 8.5 hrs when I first got it.

    What's the best place now to buy new Panasonic-brand batterie?

    Got mine off ebaY got a factory battery for a good price. Good life from this battery (@ 6 hours depending on brightness and load). Remember these batteries are "new" aka unused but likely have been sitting on the shelf for a couple few years so life is somewhat diminished. Watch out for the cheap batteries from China, have heard bad things about those. Ive heard good things about the Ray-o-vac brand one sold at batteries plus, but this is often more expensive than what's on the bay. Just be sure to get one from a seller with good feedback and you should be OK.

    I'd also be interested in any battery sellers that folks would recommend.
    Thanks
