fairly urgent : battery pack needed (ihp 120)
Hi, i'm in pretty urgent need of getting a battery pack for my ihp 120 before sunday next week. if anyone has got a link to one it'd be appreciated. I'm not too worried about price as long as its around the £20 mark.

I take it there are no Radioshack stores in the UK, as they would most likely have the part also.

It's the L33AK and it most definitely does work!!

Use it myself quite regularly. Sadly Maplin no longer make it, but I'd suggest phoning a Maplin store and asking. The staff are usually knowledgable and might point you in the direction of an alternative.

I ordered one online from Maplins only about 3 weeks ago, and it came through in a matter of days. Worth a try

(works like a charm, by the way )

absurd_biscuit, what exactly did you order? because it looks as if between then and now, the battery pack has been discontinued.

i contacted maplins, and unfortunately they've confirmed there is no alternative for the discontinued battery pack (L33AK).

However I was able to find another battery pack over at www.batteryspace.com, useless to me as it wont get here in time, more so it comes in at a hefty $90, but if you're really determined to get one, this may be an alternative: http://www.batteryspace.com/index.as...l=&strCompare=

On the subject of batteries I just had a look at Maplin's online catalogue and smegging excellent! they've got the 15 minute AA charger & batteries!

http://www.maplin.co.uk/Module.aspx?...e=14&doy=12m10

Time to start ditching my old 1300mah NIMH's in favour of these 2000mah 15 minute rechargables

I'm no longer in need of a battery pack, as Haku has graciously decided to send me one of his battery packs
