If you'd like to convert a huge number of books, it would be best to use kindlegen itself. Kindle Previewer uses this in the background.

When I get at my desktop computer, I'll post a zip-file with a mini-script that creates AZW3 files using KindleGen and KindleUnpack, saving the original EPUB and intermittent mobi KF8:Joint file as well.

Warning in advance: there's no error-checking. If the script finishes, you should have the same number of EPUBs, MOBI's and AZW3s. If you don't, you'll have to check the logs and/or compare the output directories to see which book didn't convert. Even though the script saves the original EPUBs, I highly recommend running it on a copy of your files.
