    7.2 V what?

    If you know the battery type then it'd be easy.

    Where do you live? Cause I can honestly say if you live by a BestBuy they most likely have that battery or can use their 'part search' to order you one. Should only be about 50$ too.

    In my experience, the 4 hour battery is physically 3 times as big as a normal 1 hour one.

    need the model number of the cam corder, but you might be looking at $100+ for a 4 hour one

    If a 700mAh pack lasts for 1 hour, then you'll need 4 x 700mAh = 2800mAh.

    Amazon have 1400mAh packs here (which they claim will last for 3 hours). If you desperately need 4 hours (without changing packs), you could get somebody to make up a custom pack for you - but then you'd probably need to get a good quality hobby grade charger too....
