Default Dyson DC59 replacement battery - engineer required?

I started researching replacing the battery in our DC59 - not now an issue
fortunately.

Dyson don't sell batteries because they say it should only be fitted by a
trained engineer.

That leaves 3rd party products or paying the Dyson tax.

Has anyone been down this route with a hand held Dyson?

It is bound to be required at some point in the future.

I have no idea why Dyson didn't follow the route of most battery
appliances and have a replaceable battery with a separate charger.

Noted that they have the same script for the In-car charger which really
defies all logic.

No doubt you noted the "We don't sell this spare part online, as it should
only be replaced by a qualified engineer.".
