Swallow the extra expense and buy your batteries from a well
established high st. retailer would be my advice.

Which High Street shop would sell Li-ion batteries?

Maplin - probably not actually on the high street any more but still
real retail outlets. Does RS count? They have 16 branches in the UK.
