Any suggestions? Maybe even a suggestion for a different battery.
Don't expect anything from DX to actually be the real product and not a counterfeit.
Try Thomas Distributing for good prices on bats. FWIW, I wouldn't go for LSD bats unless you have either a very low drain light (for instance a taillight) or only use your light from time to time. A standard 2500 ni-mh will take a long time to self discharge to 2000. If you change your bats once a week or more go for the 2500 as you'll have longer runtime. I base all of this on my experience with Sanyo 2500 and Eneloop bats in a Fenix LD2 used for commuting.
