The Direct Power batteries are easily disassembled so re-celling is an

How many cells have gone? (measure cell voltage under load)

er... OK. Thinking how to load the batteries and have access to the
connections. I'll get back.

My suspicion is that I have internal leak issues rather than failed
cells. A few cycles of use and they perform better. Unfortunately they
are not used daily so what is expected to be a fully charged battery
only gives a short period of output.

I also have to check for *sophistication* in the charger circuit:-)

Mixing old and new cells will be false economy.
I use Euro batteries for replacement cells. Excellent service. If you
order from a email address you've not registered with them before you
get 20% off your 'first' order
Also worth looking with google for discount codes sometimes these are
greater than 20%
