I got a gel-cell off flea-bay for $20 on sale recently. But normally I use Batteries Plus and pick them up locally. Oh and they do have a website.

I picked up the new battery for my spree from Amazon.com, if you know the type you need check the price there.

My dear old dad is a wise old bird and he was fond of saying "You can buy the $40 pair of shoes twice, or buy the $80 dollar pair once -- your feet will thank you for making the right choice." My experience is that you can buy the off-brand Chinese low price battery twice, or the Yuasa Japanese battery once. My vote is for the Yuasa every time. :peace:
