[QUOTE="davent, post: 217535, member: 6002"] Had a bit of a win today. Ivan off another forum, a tdi user, came up with a suggestion. Using 4 x 18650 li ion batts for 14.4v at 2.2 amph, which is all good as an emergency battery, because the standard pack is 4.4 amph. But you can go for 2 x 4batts in series, then hook the 2 banks as parallel for the same as a factory pack, but they (battery power) have to have the pack made up else where, probably $100 labour plus post (dangerous goods). Batteries are about 22 bucks each, probably about $300 all up, so the whites factory pack is about the same. Another alternative though is, 5 hooked up, and use a small block of wood to fill the gap left by the other 3 batts, and you have 18v at about 2.2 amph. That will give me about 3 or 4 hours of extra punch, or more depth by maybe as much as 1 or 2 inches apparently, at a cost of about $220....something to think about, just wondering if the existing charger will charge 18v though?
