That's my gripe too.  I've got enough underutilized BLM-1 batteries to choke
a horse, plus the beast that comes with the HLD2 and the Minolta A1's
battery, not to mention the wad of AA rechargables, MD2 battery packs plus
the T45 battery pack!!!!

ENOUGH ALREADY!

Can't these guys just use one battery type for the entire system?  I'd love
it if the E-System flashes took the BLM-1.  Imagine, an entirely
interchangeable battery system?

At least the new E-system battery is tiny.
