NRG, those Powerstream chargers are the imported ones I meant above, and I recommend them
on my website for the old eZee NiMh batteries.
They will cost around £60 upwards once imported and there's always the risk of duties being applied, togerher with Post office duty collection charge, bringing it up to about £90.
Mart, the record of cheap lithium batteries has ben very poor, they often fail very early in life. Those tool ones have a very low capacity, so you'd have to parallel around six or more to get the capacity and range you need, and that brings charging and balance problems. They are suspiciously cheap though.
The lead acid ones will be ok, but they are extremely heavy and will give a big performance hit due to that weight. In addition, they only give about half the range you'd expect from 12 Ah due to something called the Peukert effect on these.
The best answer for batteries is to use the right one and accept the cost of that. All the substitute ways that are pursued are full of problems.
