I have seen somewhere here references to companies that supply odd-ball
rechargeable batteries, and I am looking for a battery to fit an old
Bosch screwdriver, which is now not listed.
I would appreciate suggestions of suitable suppliers. I need a company
that knows what to supply given the model info., rather than a generic
cell supplier, such as Maplins, as there is no old battery to measure.
Any helpful suggestions welcomed.

It will probably be easier and even cheaper to just buy a new screwdriver
complete.

Could well be, and I am prepared for that. This one was bequeathed to
me by a friend, so I would like to at least try to reatore it, for
sentimental reasons. However.......

Are there not enough clues to make an educated guess as to what it
needs? Voltage on the rating plate. Size of empty battery
compartment, etc google for the model may well produce other useful
snippets of information, maybe even a parts list or service manual.

Yes, if I don't find the info. from a battery supplier, then I will do
that. I had tried Bosch Parts, and all I get is that it's out of date.
I need a battery supplier for another project, so thought that I would
ask for a good one, and start there. If the actual battery required is
known by somebody, I would prefer that over tying to figure out what's
needed.
One step at a time.
