Canon HF10/HF11 owners...what batteries do you use?

The BP-809 battery for these camcorders is pretty expensive. Has anyone found any good aftermarket battery that is cheaper?

take a look at the owners threads for those camcorders at avsforum.com

i use an ebay battery for my xl1s, but aftermarket batteries are always a crap shoot, they could burn up like those laptop batteries.

SterlingTek makes a replacement. Works well but the LED status is confusing.
