I bought a battery from a member on one of the PDA sites - was a great deal and easy to install.  It was about 3 times the capacity of the original.
I'll see if I can find the site. http://www.pdastreet.com/forums/index.php Try there and search iQue batteries.  I will too and post if I find any.
I think this is the guy I purchased it from http://forum.brighthand.com/showthread.php?t=12131  :cheers:

Edit:
I found the main thread over there (and re-aquainted myself with the boyz in the hood that I hadn't yakked at in forever) - here ya gohttp://forum.brighthand.com/showthread.php?t=253140

This ad came into my email:
http://www.marinewholesales.com/en/product.php?id=2193

I notice it comes with a "Basemap" and then I guess you buy the "Optional BlueChart g2 Vision cards provide marine chart detail....."

figures.
I saw some on eBay yesterday.  I have to see if I can find some reviews or something.  I have bought some 3rd party batteries that were not worth crap.

Shop around and find one you like.Garmin makes a good product whenit comes to GPS units Raymarine low end models are slow.Anyway get prices then go to the show in the nassau coliseum see Freeport marine and you will save some money they do deals with Garmin at the show that they cant do any other time.Hope this helps by the way I have the 3206 garmin GPS and love it.
