Battery for WorkZone 3.6V cordless screwdriver?
My WorkZone screwdriver has been left unused for about a year and now has
no battery power. The charger still makes the led glow, but charging for a long time doesn't result in any charge. I assume that the batter is dead. I took it apart today and the battery is labelled C18500P 3.6V LiIon. It is wrapped in greased paper and has soldered tags which connect to the electronics. I've put it all back together to make sure bits don't get lost, but this may have been premature! I can't seem to find any reference to the battery except for batterycity.co.uk. Battery is listed as £5.95 including VAT. However shipping is listed as 9.95 Euros. As you can buy a replacement (not WorkZone) for around £20 a DIY repair doesn't seem to make economic sense. Anyone know a good battery supplier in the UK who may not be top of the hit list on Google? I assume that the battery designation is obscure because there are just no hits.
