Default Perth Stockists of braille batteries

I think my battery is fubarred after some charging issues this arvo/tonight as it has gotten really hot, i.e too hot too even pick up, this has never happened before so not sure what has happened.

Anyway i need to find a stockist that sells braille batteries locally so i can bring my battery so they can assess it and be able to purchase something that has similar dimensions to the battery i currently have..

Any help much appreciated..

I've bought a Braille from Tony Flood before.

I replaced my Braille with another brand (who's name escapes me at the present) from Go Gear. Same size but better characteristics.
