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!!??

Hey Francis, ive read some people have had problems with Maplins and others havent, Id go to ebay and get a Cameron Sino, as there are no reported failures (yet) and yes its just switching the wires you can see pics in Dennys thread on replacement, (link is in my signature), good luck
