anyone got a good recommendation for batteries.
the hero takes aaa size and at the minute i am using duracell ultra power.
these only last about 20 minutes on record. these are supposed to be long life!

    They should come with a rechargeable Li-ion battery pack.

    not the origional hero, it comes with aaa batteries. the newer hd editon uses li ion packs.

    i chose the first edition as i need it to last longer than 3 hours, so i can swap cards and batteries as i go.

    You realise you can buy additional Li-ion batteries, i.e. you didn't have to buy a none HD version to be able to record for longer than 3hrs if you needed.
