    Something to consider here in Australia is that high temperatures dramatically increase the discharge rate of your rechargeable batteries, so don’t leave your camera in the car on a hot day!

    Great to see the Maha Powerex products getting the recognition they deserve in the US comments. I went searching for them Powerex products 2 years ago to feed my Canon S2IS and found they weren’t available in Australia. We talked with Maha, and became their Australian distributor :)
    We also talked to LaCrosse about distributing the BC-900 featured in the article, but it does not meet C-Tick approval, so they can’t be sold here in Oz.
