Hi Lee,
Sorry about the delay responding... I've had a few crises that have taken a bit ot time to deal with.
I've been travelling, so I'll have to check out the various options for rebuilding this battery pack when I get home. Thanks for the suggestions though Lee... and yours Raymond.

Depends entirely on the price you pay for a new PA2498UR pack. I bought 3
from an ebayer who didn't know what they were - cost $7 for the first 2, then
somebody bid up the last one to $20.
There're also some PA2503URs on ebay with apparently non-standard cells giving 2600 mAh and selling for around $60.
This site:

shows a JVC camcorder battery containing what appear to be the proper Li-Ion
cells for $6.95/pr, so about $21 for a battery case full. I emailed them for
dimensions, and they are very close to the size of the Panasonic cells in my
PA2503 packs. Haven't used them, though.
