Tapeless Camcorders with Li ion Batteries, Bad!!!!

Jan 18, 2005 9:13AM PST

Greetings Everyone:

I just can't get over the amount of nobrand Tapeless Camcorders that are available.
They have very great features, sleek compact design, but they use the dreaded Li ion batteries.

Now I'm a true believer of Rechargeable batteries, but when I inquired to a noname brand Tapeless Camcorder
company about geting a second Li ion battery if I buy their camcorder, do you know what response I got.
None, absolutely zero, I think these camcorders are supplied with only one battery and extras are not
produced at this moment.
So, this is why I search for Tapeless Camcorders that
take AA batteries, easy to find anywhere in the world, and many brands to choose from.

Any other opinions anyone?

Regards Robert
