Default Cordless Phone batteries are all junk?

This particular battery BT-0003 seems to be no longer available from
Uniden. When it was available years ago, it cost as must as a new
handset.


Update, I did find it at Uniden for $25 apiece, plus shipping.

This fact really does not change my question.


Hard to tell from the picture... are these just AA cells
in a "custom" holder? I have had panasonic "battery packs"
of similar design and was able to disassemble the "holder"
(if you look carefully, you can see where the top "keeper"
is a separate piece that snaps on -- though yours may be solvent
welded) and replace the cells.
