Ulf A drop in replacement for nicads is nickle metal hydride or NiMh. Nicads are still available but can be expensive. The other comment I would make is the 1970s charging circuits were pretty crude and lead to boiled batteries. If your going to invest in an internal battery you may want to consider a smarter modern charger. There seems to be all sorts of very nice boards out of China for little cost. Its amazing. If you go the alternate approach you may consider Lithium batteries. Drones seemed to have made a very nice market for batteries and smart chargers. Regards Paul WB8TSL
