OK, the Co. that makes this is "CONHIS MOTOR" super great motors as well as controllers and then you will need 4 12v12ah or 12v15ah SLA batteries they all will have to be wired together as 1 48volt battery these batteries can be B&B or UPG I personally like UPG because of the price and performance!

I am in the same boat here. I just want to get the 5800mah battery regardless of color because they all look beautiful. Can anyone advise how I can get this battery if I make the purchase? Thanks.

I don't think you can purchase a battery. The reason being that people were installing the battery incorrectly so they do not sell replacement batteries. Any way that's what I read when I needed to replace the battery on my DirtTamer.

I googled battery replacement and it looks pretty detailed.i opted to find a good deal on a norelco replacement.actually found a new in box one for 20 on Craigslist . The cutters alone cost more than that.

Yes you can get it locally at any auto parts store for around 5 bucks for a quart which is plenty. Best battery made! Put my last one on a battery tender when not in use and it lasted 10yrs!

The tools that come with kit are enough... I looked up in YouTube how to replace battery... just take your time get a feel for how the parts come apart once inside replacement is a breeze.. I always take a pic as to how everything is arranged just in case a get confused I will have a reference.

Robert R.: What did you "figure out" that required "no further comments"?! This is so frustrating trying to figure out which Sony batteries to order. Exactly which battery did you get to fit securely and is the "included battery adaptor" that "wimberleynerd" mentions needed? If so I didn't get one. Please explain. Thanks. SM

I bought a complete Ryobi tool kit. I am not impressed with some of the tools. The rotary saw and kit batteries are junk and the batteries beganto lose life and power right away and did'nt survive even one year. Get one expensive lithium ion battery and you will be much happier than with your kit battery.

How do I find out what is wrong with this battery? I did not know that you aren't supposed to use the regular battery tenders on these kind of batteries and I left it charging for a couple of days and now it is beyond dead. So if the tender didn't kill it, apparently (also read just now in the questions section) if it drops below 8% charge it is no longer anything but a paperweight? So tell me now if I should just go out and buy a new battery after wasting my money on the 1 ride I got out of this battery.

I replaced the battery on ours with one from a local hobby shop and ours works much better now. I didn't have the exact same thing you are describing, though. The battery that ships with the product is not great quality.

I recently purchased a replacement battery for my sweeper too only I had a different result. It worked well (and still does) I bought it from swifferbattery.com service was great and I saved money buying the battery (instead of a whole new sweeper) and I saved the environment :)

I purchased mine from amazon, I haven't got the thing running yet, although the battery is charged up. I had an issue with amazon over this kit.

You can buy the battery here on Amazon. It's a Makita BL1014. You will also need a battery charger as well.

Thanks for the rundown and for the tip. SterlingTek SterlingTek's POWWER brand Canon Powershot SD790 NB-5L battery 1400mAH would be the way to go, but I'm penny-pinching, and 14. + 8. (shipping) for the SterlingTek is 12. more than the Lenmar, so I think I'll have to spin the wheel and hope I receive a non-dud from them. SterlingTek make a sweet little car charger for that battery also (15. + 8.) that would be very handy, but now we're talking fantasy purchases. I shouldn't be shopping, I should be digging myself out of debt.

Contact the manufacturer regarding your specific brand of battery.... they're very helpful reputable people.

I experimented with the battery. You can buy just the battery. Once buying this, you will never go back. I too wanted a stronger battery & bought a poweradd. But this battery is great. This combo is awesome. If power is what you are looking for. Look into ma's

Wow!! Just reading the post here.I guess I just stole the whole trimmer at Sears as a close-out for 31 bucks, Dizamn! I got lucky, Almost didnt buy it. Guess from what you all are saying I need to hunt for a cheap spare battery.
