Not removable relating to having a quick disconnect feature like new tools offer by switching battery packs with a push of a button
Soundguy you think then its worth purchasing batteries again on this old tool. I already replaced them once. I have not bothered to even look for any so cant say what they may cost.
I often repalce batteries in devices that have those shrink wrapped 'non replaceable' soldered in packs.
Last ones I did used sub-c sized bats. The new bats I purchased had 50% more MAH capacity as the originals, and cost around 1$ per cell, depending. ( actual price range is .59-.99 depending on size, capacity and chemistry. ). You can get them with tack welded tabs for soldering or not. The place I buy from charges a flat 1$ fee to tab them. thus if I buy 6 bats to redo a pack, it costs about 7$ +tax if I do local pickup and about 9$ shipped. ( shipping adds$ but no tax, and then easier to find the .60 cent cells vs .99, so it almost evens out.. on large needs of 7+ batteries, i order, if it is 6 or less I go local ).
The wife uses 2 battery powered 'electric brooms' to neat up the tile floor. We keep one at the long ends of the house, opposite sides.
Battery packs from the maker are 36$ plus shipping, each!.
I made both packs for about 15$.. and they have more capacity...
I split the old shrink wrap and soldered the bats into the same orientation, re applied the factory shrink, and added a couple winds of black tape . good to go.
If your pack has a thermal sensor, you just have to keep that in mind when rebuilding it!
