A US East Coast chain of stores called Batteries Plus can sell you cells and spot weld them in any almost any way you want. At least my local store can do that here in Virginia.

All this discussion of the excellence of these Rb units reminds me that another cell must have died in my battery pack since the slightest glitch in the power here now makes the green light go out. The last time a cell died I just took it out since it actually seems to work well enough with 20 instead of the specified 21, but another one seems to have gone high resistance. So, my question is: where might be a good place in the US to get tabbed NiMH AA cells to replace the battery in mine? I am currently using generic Chinese ones, but am not at all happy with their longevity. And this one came from eBay, quite a bit less than $500 because it looked filthy, but it took a lot of patience to find it and a bit of TLC to get it going, but it has been working superbly for about four years now.
