Life's too short. I go out with a handful of batteries in my pocket. I never switch the camera off, I have auto review on, I use the LCD constantly for managing my settings , I chimp sometimes, When the battery life is getting low. I change the battery. I can take 100 pictures in a day. I go home put batteries on charge, some of them I estimate, have been charged 500 times +. And most importantly I don't worry.

Well, it's good to know your batteries go well beyond 500 charges! How old are they? You haven't even experienced any shortening of the time between charges?

I bet you dont even set the LCD to turn off if you dont use any of the buttons within 1 minute  I have it set to that and the backlight turns off after 30 sec.
