Weird that this should show up in the message body... is that a
problem with YAM, THOR or eGroups?

I have a Unity Digital ProPower Pack, a 2700mAh NiMH rechargeable
battery pack. I've found it allows me to use my camera as often as I
like, using the LCD, flash and zoom all day without having to worry
about running out of batteries. Plus, there's enough power in a single
charge to be able to come home and download all my photos, still using
the Power Pack (I haven't got round to buying an AC adaptor yet).

There's a review of it here:
