My 7500's battery died in the Summer, I got one by first class post from
Scotsys, the Apple dealer in Glasgow, cost a reasonable fiver including
posting and no questions asked. Apart from which battery I wanted!

Sounds like good advice. I got a PRAM battery from my Apple Dealer in
Victoria, London, but it cost more than that. Otherwise, Maplin's sell an
equivalent. Take the dead battery with you. It's not necessary to get
exactly the right voltage- I think the normal one is 3.6V but provided it's
in the right region, anything down to 3V, and provided the shape is right,
you should be okay.
