I have some old BLT halogen lights with lead acid battery that fits into water bottle carrier. They no longer hold their charge, so I'm looking for replacement battery. I'm pretty happy with the lights 1 x 6W + 1 x 15W, so I am reluctant to shell out £200+ for new set of LED lights.

    Maplin do LA batteries, though you may have to mount to the frame differently.

    +3 for Maplin, bought one for my years old Smart light 6v4ah for £9. Though you might have to buy 2 to fit into a new bottle. Take the old bottle apart with a knife and see how they are wired up.
    I've added a signature to prove it is still possible.
