From: John Niemi <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
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?
They're spot welded as far as I know.
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?
You can get LiIon cells that will fit into the Lib pack here:

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 :)
Here's a couple links to info in the Lib archives:
