I need some help here, I just opened my high-capacity battery (that was dead) and now I'm facing two problems; 1) How to get the 6 battery units out of their terminals(?), you know those metal strips that are connected to the batteries + and - ends...? Are they soldered so that I only need to heat the connection points? 2) Where to get replacement batteries, what is the correct term when I start hunting these sort of batteries thru ebay or other stores? I was expecting to find A or AA size batteries in the battery pack but these are somewhat of an unorthodox size I think? Also any other tips are most welcome. I would be very happy if I could build a battery pack with the original dimensions that would last 3-4 hours (of course even more would be better if possible :) Thanks in advance! -John
