I have been running these:http://www.thomasdistributing.com/-MAHA-POWEREX-Four-2700-mAh-AA-NIMH-Rechargeable-Batteries_p_20.htmlon a set of 4 for about 3 years, and recording at 24/96. UI typically get 2-3 shows out of a set of freshly charged batteries when I have a couple of shows in a week.... $13 for 3 years, ~100 shows a year... you do the math

regarding #83 abovebattery life with the SD722 will vary with sampling rate because it will affect how much power is needed to spin the hard drive.since the M10 is solid state, I wouldn't expect to see much of an effect.
Nice price for the m10, gd420mj!Record your twins and listen to it while you're at work or in a few months. You will be able to hear how much they have grown up and how fast they learn.
Quotetough being dad of 4 yr old twins...and wanting to go out tape everything Heh, teach them how to use it! It's never too early to learn how to be a recording engineer. These days kids pick up tech stuff so fast.And as someone mentioned above, recording the kids can be great for replay in future years. I have a few of mine from that kind of age - and now they are in their mid 30's. It's also good to get out on your own sometimes...!

Do you work for bands or something ?

All it takes is the will, endurance, and sufficient quantities of the right food.

When I listen to the mic input on these tests the M-10 sounds good, but the line input sounds noticeably lacking:http://www.wingfieldaudio.com/portable-recorder-noise.html#samples
