Anton Bauer V-Mount Battery

I'm thinking about getting some extra equipment (Monitor + EVF) sometime in the future, and I want to power them both with a single Anton Bauer Battery.

I have the Redrock shoulder Mount, so having this battery will remove the weight from the front and add counter balance to the back. Which is the main reason I want this battery. Plus, I dont have the 7D/5D batteries, nor want to use AAA batteries, so this will save confusion, time, and batteries.

I am going to get the MicroPod Accessory Plate to mount the battery.

My questions (Using the cheapest methods):
1) What battery mount do I get for the plate?
2) What battery do I get?
3) How do I charge the battery?
4) I will have a D-Tap cable from SmallHD - But, there are two monitors that need powering (External Monitor + EVF),
so how do I connect both of them to one Anton Bauer Battery - Or can it not be done - Would I need two batteries?
5) Is it possible to use this battery to power the T2i too?

Sweet!!! Thank so much for posting this.
Also DDirector, My wife is running the Anton Bauer on her 60D and 7D, Let me say, This thing can probably run for at least 16 hours straight. We just did a gig for Miss USA 2011 on a friday for 6 hours, Did not charge it, Next day a gig for 8 hours , Total time on her cards was approximately 6 hours of shooting on her Steadicam (Reason she uses the battery for weight as well) and when she charged it she said it only took less than 30 minutes before it got full again, She had this battery for 2 years now and she used it with her HMC150 before...She used to run the battery for 10 hours on that camcorder before it went low with on camera lights attached to it. So I am assuming this battery will run her DSLR for at least 16 hours straight.
Ill have a video of her setup soon, I was going to post it the other day but had no time. Will post here once its done.
 
Cool Cool.
So, I won't be needing an HDMI Splitter anymore then?

So with this, what accessories would I also need? Including the battery.
