The best thing to do is without a shadow of doubt, buy a rechargeable CR2 charger and batteries. I was getting through lots of these batteries in my digital SLR until I discovered this solution.

Of course, that is nonsense and of course expensive if you use it a lot. Has anybody an idea how to replace them by NiCd's or NiMH's? In principle you need two NiCd's which both together are as long as the CR 2 in order to get the 3 Volts to replace one CR2.
