I would settle for easily replaceable with a battery off eBay. Since I live way out in the "boonies" a local store does not have much more than flashlight batteries.
I am still waiting for my PP, but I have a Hanlin V3 and it's OEM battery gave me some problems similar to what I read here. It was a simple matter to order an inexpensive Nokia BL-5C battery off eBay and kiss my battery problem goodbye. I wonder why they changed battery types between the V3 and the V5, when the battery capacities are nearly the same?
