Hi, I have the 9 V battery pack and, believe me, its not worth having them send you another one. You're only going to get the same thing again and it really doesn't provide enough light. Would you consider spending around 5 bucks to have them ship you the 12 v battery pack that provides the necessary light in poor lighting conditions?

Would someone please post contact information for the company. I e-mailed them about this problem but didn't receive a response. Thanks much.
