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.
Thanks Ziemas. The LSD's are for a digital camera and other little used items like that. I use the 2500's for my lights. In fact, I may have learned that from you in another battery thread!
