A EN-4 to be exact. I am looking at getting a D1H but the guys batteries wont hold a charge, and I want to test it out before I buy it and sink money into several batteries.

I looked up on their rental page, and they don't rent any of the D1 series cameras. This was at Arlington Camera. The battery is only compatible with the D1, D1H, and D1X. Last few times I went to Arlington Camera they weren't helpful at all, its like they blew me off thinking I don't have any money, thats the way it seems anyways.

Did you ever find the batteries? I have been considering those 2700 mah batteries found in eBay for 12.99 + 10.00 shipping. My old 2100 mah Nikon brand ones won't hold a charge for even 50 shots no matter what.
