I was thinking about the same in order not to carry the external battery. The only workable way IMHO would be to: 1. Remove the current battery enclosure 2. Fit 4 polymer Li-Ion , e.g., 2.5A like at the bottom. 3. Connect directly to power inputs, perhaps with a resettable fuse 4. Charge with 2A charger to 15.5-16V (16.8V charger with 1-2 diodes).
I would not bother fitting LiFePO3 internally as they are bigger and store less power. I did a similar thing with K2, and it toured the world without problems. Great convenience of no extra battery and fast charging.
