Has anyone looked into swapping the SLA's with the short life expectancy for some of the new LI batteries? My guess is that the box draws around 300 mA at 24V or around 7W (seems excessive today). There are a number of high current LI options that would easily fit, weigh a lot less get rid of the lead and its disposal problems etc. I don't think the charger would need a lot of rework either and there are protection boards and other stuff all over ebay for LiFE or LIPO batteries. I have one 732A so it's a lot of effort for one box but if you have several its worth looking into. Perhaps a kit to make the change would be popular?
