^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ This may not be the same one, but it is what I have on file in my Palm: WC Battery Rebuilders, 714 231-0271, e-mail snipped-for-privacy@sbcglobal.net

I've used the following service with good luck. I feel their prices are reasonable. We've a Batteries Plus in Bowling Green but I've not had good luck with their service.

If you are comfortable doing it, MTO sells you the cells and you can rebuild your own battery. I've not tackled this, but it seems to be a way of saving a bit of money.

If not radio shack - an RC shop has powerful ones. Used in cars, boats and sail plains (gliders).

The biggest issue you may find is dependent on how the cells are to be connected. If you need to solder to them you may need to use an active flux, as normal tin/lead solder usually will not adhere effectively. You will also need to use a high temperature iron, as the cell can be a good heat sink. And finally, use the minimum time possible as the heat can cause a cell to gas off or even explode. (I managed a shop floor where we had to modify 15000 cell banks a month, because they ordered too many, like a years worth. They saved a penny on each one!)

Was it "Primecell".

Thanks
