I have a 2 year old cheaper($60 I think) one that uses C cell batteries.  It will use them up in less than a week.

I'd like to get some input on which ones in the $100-$125 or so range are good.

I have only used the cheaper ones like what I think FarmerRick is talking about. Two points I can make about them are one get some type of locking case or make a box to keep them in. I have had two that grew legs and walked off. The other point goes to what Rick said about the batteries. I use the energizer rechargables in C cell and they seem to last a lot longer than regular batteries.
