They are on sale on ebay. I think they are £15-£20.

As to fitting it, according to the video I saw it's;
lever off a bit,
2 screws,
slide & lift the back off,
2 screws,
lift the old battery out.
reverse to re-assemble.
Not too complicated really.

I'm in the UK, my DXG came with a US adaptor. It's good for 110-250 volts, 50-60Hz. As long as your power is in that range, all you need is a simple adaptor that fits your power socket, no transformer is needed, mine cost under £1.
Charging via USB - around 4 hours from "feed me" warning to full.

Any use?
