Ha Ha Ha very helpful Richard, thanks, didn't think of Google...... Well actually I did and I came up with dozens of suppliers based in the USA selling the battery at between $25 and $40 (great) plus $69 shipping costs (not great).
Hoping someone can refer me to a local (Aus/NZ)supplier. Struggling to find one on Google that isn't an Ebay trader out of Hong Kong.
