replacement batteries

Depends on the battery pack - some are easy - they have screws, some are a PITA since they are welded shut. If you send it to the above folks then it becomes SEP however.

Mine's in the PITA category but what is SEP? Simple ? Piss?

"An SEP is something that we can't see, or don't see, or our brain doesn't let us, because we think that it's somebody else's problem. That's what SEP means. Somebody Else's Problem. If you look at it directly you won't see it unless you know precisely what it is. Your only hope is to catch it by suprise out of the corner of your eye."

Very useful for hiding things found in life, the universe and everything ;-)

I have always rebuilt my own battery packs If you can get them at a reasonable price Sanyo N-2600CR sub c are excellent, but cost about £3.90 each. Alternately a friend who plays with model race cars has tried these, and apparently are good value for the money at £1.75 each. YMMV

Ni-mh though. I'll see if Healey's price is exchange or not and see if they plan to re-order.

I don't want to chew up the casing and then regret it.

I begin to believe that the cost of battery replacements is what drives the sale of new drills.

As a bad source, but very, very cheap. Wander round your local DIY store, looking for battery packs on discount.
