I use a Canon Powershot A720is + 4gb SDHC + 2AA batts inside it and 4 spares in the front pouch. The camera performs realy good on one set of batteries, the life of which can be extended by turning off the screen and useing the viewfinder instead.
Phonecalls, txts & email
I use a Samsung SGH-Z140 camera phone + spare battery.
Navigation
I use a Garmin etrex H GPS, loaded with routes and waypoints for that day hike or trip and accompanied by a compass & map printed at 1:25:000 from Memory Map. I get between 17 and 20 hours out of one set of two AAs.
Walkie Talkies
Communications between the lads is taken care of by way of long range Walkie Talkies, the make of which will remain anonymous ;-) These are rechargeable and have a standby time of over 60hrs.
