Wasabi. I bought 4 to go with my 2 sigma batteries for a 1 month trek in Nepal. Wasabi batteries worked great and lasted just as long as the Sigma branded batteries.

I bought some $19.99 batteries, the ones they sell on ebay, i'm sending them back, they are too thick, I put one in the dp2 merrill and couldn't get it out, had to pry it out, scary stuff.

The batteries I bought direct from Blue Nook where basically identical to the Sigma batteries. The went in the camera easy and dropped out easy. This is the link:

Wasabi Power Battery and Charger Kit for Ricoh DB-65 and Ricoh G700, G700SE, G600, GR Digital, GR Digital II, GR Digital III, GR Digital IV, GX100, GX200, Caplio R3, R4, R5, R30 : Battery & Charger Kits

I believe it is the same that is sold at amazon:
Amazon.com: Wasabi Power Battery and Charger Kit for Ricoh DB-65 and Ricoh G700, G700SE, G600, GR Digital, GR Digital II, GR Digital III, GR Digital IV, GX100, GX200, Caplio R3, R4, R5, R30: Camera & Photo

I'm going to be ordering more of these as they as so cheap that trying to solar charge or use external batteries doesn't make sense (at least for me).
