If yer close to a home depot, you can buy the ryobi packs, gut the cells
from it (they are the same size) and build yer own packs. I've even seen
replacement packs for no name drills at big lots (a US closeout retailer)
that use the same size cells. Though they are of lesser capacity and
quality than the brand named packs....

With the assumption that the cells of the cheaper brands are of similar
quality, go to Harbor Freight or Sears or Northern Tool and buy a $15.00 18
volt battery pack and use those cells.
