Default Replacement batteries.

Where can I get replacement batteries and a charger for 18v PowerDevil
stuff?

Alternatively how do I find a local source that can make something
that will do the job?

If you buy this you'll get two batteries.

These guys are good, they have fitted new cells to my old battery packs
at about half the price of a new pack, could be worth a phone call.

If you try to buy a spare battery (never mind a spare charger) for
bottom-end kit, you'll find it costs about 90% of the cost of a complete
new tool. So the usual strategy is to buy that, and you get a new tool
into the bargain and keep the old one for spares. Especially if you
want a new charger too, I'm doubly sure that will be the most economical
route.

There is an online outfit which has been mentioned here a few times, who
will fit new cells to old power packs, but they won't be cost-effective
for cheapo stuff.

Apparently, the government is to force all DIY'ers to use Power Devil tools
!.

Because Power Devil stuff is so ****e it doesn't last 5 minutes, this move
by the government is bound to drastically reduce carbon emissions :-)
