Is the NiCad battery replaceable, and, if so, is it commonly available.

I just bought this a month a go I really don't know about the battery but for the price they look and work amazing I ordered another 22 of them for my Building

Not sure but with the LED I am betting it will be a very long time before needed if ever. Uses very little power.

The battery pack is replaceable, as it plugs into the circuit board. In fact, one of the installation steps is to "plug in the battery". I don't know how commonly available it is but I'm sure it would be available from the manufacturer of the emergency light.

Yes the battery is replaceable. Replacement is a Sealed Lead Acid Bat 12V 6AH, Sealed Lead Acid Battery 12V 6.0AH FLAME RET FASTON 0.250"x0.032" To replace first remove 4 screws on the bottom to split the case apart. Certainly not an easy push and slide door but still accessible.

I really don't know I don't think you can actually replace the internal battery or even if they actually sell it, I'm sorry I could not be of any help

Yes, its very easy to replace the battery. Also I've had mine for 18 months and I haven't needed to replace it yet.

No it cannot be replaced, since it's more than 2 years old and out of warranty they will not fix it citing un availability of parts. You will need to buy a new one. If you are good at taking things apart and soldering you can try to dismantle it and get an after market battery.

Yes, the battery can be replaced. Remove the two screws on the top, then unplug the black top from the battery pack. The battery pack is held on with some clear silicone, so you have to pry it off with a putty knife or some other tool that is thin and flat. I don't recall if it had three or four rechargeable batteries within a rubberized outer covering. I purchased one at Fry's Electronics for around $14. Very easy to replace. Wayne

Your assumption is correct. The battery/batteries is/are not user replaceable. The factory warranty is two years, but mine is dying quickly at the four year mark. I've just ordered a 3000 from Amazon.Proper charging will lengthen the life of the brush. My old Oral-B had NiCad batteries and had to be fully discharged about once every six months. I don't know what the battery composition is for the newer brushes. In my case, I think water damage may have caused it's demise.

No, the battery is not replaceable. There doesn't seem to be a way to open it up without breaking it. The battery does seem to last pretty well, though and I've had it since October 2012. So far, so good!

I used the nicd battery. it worked fine.This is a pretty good unit for the price. it came with two blades, one fine-toothed for metal and one larger-toothed blade for wood. That was a happy surprise.

Yep, there is a replaceable battery. Lithium ion, flat cell phone like battery. Don't have it with me to quote specs, however.

I emailed Earthwise (Sales@reelin.com) and they responded that the Lithium Ion battery will not fit into the NiCad devices.

I don't think so, it's a non removable battery so replacing it is almost not possible

No, it is posted on I fixit.com. Not simple, I'm moderately technically skilled, and had no problem replacing the battery.

No it's not designed to be user replaceable. I too am not very satisfied with this unit. It is VERY easy to bump the ambidextrous switches and run the battery down, since it does not have an auto off feature.

yes the battery can be replaced, and it is hard to open it up. I had to ask my husband how to do it.

Yes, it is a NiCad battery - the same one that all of the other Black & Decker single source system 18v tools use.

I believe the battery is built in and I don't think you can easily replace it. But I could be wrong about battery replacement.
