I just received the 3 Powerex 300mAh rechargeables I brought for my Stepdance. They're in the charger now; I'll let you know how long I get out of them.
I get 10+ hours on low gain/high current with the 520 mAh rechargeable (linked in Woody's post above), but only 4-5 hours with my 9.6V 230 mAh battery and 3-4 with my 200 mAh battery I got from Fry's electronics. I also have a 600 mAh rechargeable that lasts probably 12+ hours, but is a little lower voltage. The difference between the 520 and 600 mAh batteries is a minor move of the volume knob and a little time!
The power supply looks excellent. 9 volt DC regulated is all appropriate. However the big question is whether the included DC output cable will be exactly the right one to fit the Stepdance. (Not likely on the odds...) I also cannot tell from the link whether there wil be any flexibility then in using another output cable that would fit.
This unit from KECES should work well also, and has 12V and 15V DC outputs.

Here is a 12V regulated power supply, but not sure how the common person will get the correct plug on it. I replaced the plug on my regulated 12V power supply. I have not seen a 15V regulated power supply; if anyone knows where you can buy one, please let us know.
