It's a great idea and I'm wondering how well they perform.  $20 CAD for two batteries is a bit steep, especially when rechargeable batteries are cheaper but if they work great, I wouldn't mind paying that price.

They're only 1300 mAh, and quite expensive.  I think I'll pass.

I suppose they wouldn't be too bad for backup purposes, but I would want something with more stored energy for everyday use.
