Fishy,

Good luck with this. I hit every WalMart and Best Buy that I could, and they were no where to be found. I ended up ordering from BatterySpace, but I got the last pair there too (for now, but I'd check back).

There are some available on Ebay though....

Incidentally, WalMart (in Dallas anway) has a Samsonite hard shell case that fits the MPVR perfectly, and for just $4.88. It's looks like it was custom made for the unit, and has a belt loop on the back. When you unzip it, it folds out but cannot fall from the case since its secured by an SD card holder. I love it.

Happy Holidays,
MPVRr

I charged the 3.6v battery and it seems to have worked fine. I left the camera on, intermittently recording video to a 512 SD card, for 2 hours. The battery ran out at the 2 hour mark, of which 1 hour was actual video recording time. The LCD screen was on the whole 2 hours. The brand of the battery is "Just Wireless" and it says it fits Nokia 6300/6500/ 8200/8300/8800. So, anyway, it worked this time just fine. I don't know if it may have a long term bad effect on the camera or some safety issues, but it doesn't appear to so far.

Yes seen that battery on its website bestbuy . I was going to stop thee but my luck, they would either be sold out , not in stocke etc lol,

Going higher in voltage will damage you camera....

Going lower vdc will only run thecamera out of power faster

850 mah will work 1600 mah will work its the other voltage that will kill it ma voltage

450 ma at 2v is the charge and that is 2 hours plus 3 1/2 to charge the 850 mah battery.

its a guessing game lol
