My to-do list has me doing the rounds of all my machines to check them all
for
the batteries. I'd like to replace rather than
remove though, but that
could get
expensive at about ?10-12 pounds per machine for the
cordless phone
battery
packs sold by Maplin. Maybe there is a better
alternative, I should go and
take
a look.

Rob

Wow! I buy mine for $2 to $4 at the local 'Dollar' store...
Or you could order from the usual place; e.g.:
http://www.aliexpress.com/store/group/Battery/1191734_259040387.html
Well, I am in the UK, but I do think I should try to find a cheaper source,
I am sure it will exist, I have just been too lazy up to now.
