@kiowa and teradog...and anyone else interested, here's the link to the batteries I got on Amazon that I am getting amazing life with.

My original price was 24.99 with free shipping (took two days to arrive). Looks like the seller raised the price to 29.99. Still worth it for TWO batteries AND a charger.
Just hit 30% so it looks like I'll be changing out right at about 50 hours of use.
