Hello all this is my first post. Recently bought a 2nd hand H120. Battery life is short so I've been checking this thread out and am going to do a change. 2 questions:

1. Maplins has been mentioned on here as a source of batteries for UK peepz. Can anyone who's fitted one of these confirm it lasts - i.e. doesn't drop off too much in less than 6 months? If these are good I'll get one, otherwise go for that eBay seller with the Cameron Sinos.

2. I've read all the stuff about some batteries needing the polarity swapping. I haven't watched the vids etc. but can I confirm that's what is meant is that some have the red and black wires the opposite way round in the connector? So as long as I make sure that red is still going to the pin it used to I'm OK? There's nothing silly like red negative leads or something going on is there!!??
