Spec battery life is for <5 minutes of recording and live viewing per day, on average. Can you verify that your usage doesn't exceed that?

The OEM cells use to run almost 4 months but the rechargables made it +/- to 2 months....

The rechargables only have about half the power capacity of the OEM cells

Not much can be done as much depends on usage ( as mentioned above )
