AFAIK, 5300, 3400 and G3 'Kanga' batteries can all be used in the 3400. I'm
not sure if the 1400 had the same form factor, but I'd imagine if it did,
you could use it as well in your 3400.
I have 3 3400 batteries, all of which hold a charge quite nicely. Should I
look for more or is that sufficient?
