I've had great luck with external battery usage, utilizing a auto adapter for
the duo (you can also use a 1400/2400/3400 car adapter as well, they are
interchangible) and a battery pack used for a video camera or light, which is
designed to give a video camera about 3-5 hrs usage. Yes, they are a bit
bulky, but if you are needing power with a client, slinging that battery pack
on your shoulder until you can set it down somewhere that could give you that
extra juice without the need for an ac plug might be something to look into.
As long as the battery pack has a cigarette lighter female plug at one end to
allow the male car adapter plug to work together.
good luck
Alan
