I use lithium batteries in the grips of both of my *istD cameras
(there's that tricky plural:-). I like the 2000 exposure battery life.
The only time I've experienced battery related problems was when I
briefly switched to nimh.

I'll bet that's the source of at least half the complainants problems
in this
thread. I've not had a spot of bother in nearly two years powering my
*ist D
sans grip with well maintained Ni-MH cells.
I just don't put batteries in the grip. It still works just fine.
I really only use the grip when shooting portraiture anyway.
