For example, if you find that the same model of battery is
used in another device, searching for batteries for use with
that other device might bring up the ones you're after.

I tried the querie with just the description and not the part
no, got
loads but none of a similar size, tried reader and tablet
batteries of
other kinds still no joy.

OK, but I was suggesting you look to see if the same battery
model is
used in another device, then search for batteries (cells, for
the misfits
out there ) to match that specific other device.

It's not always easy, but if they are listed on Alibaba but not
elsewhere
it could just be that they are normally sold for use in another
device.

Using only the battery number in google or ebay only gets
alibaba no other devises no nothing.

It is in a cheap Aldi device,

Can be a problem. I had the same problem with one of their
mobile phones which does have a user replaceable battery.
Didn't try all that hard tho, it likely is used in other phones.

Makes me wary of buying Aldi electronic devices tho.

ans I would get nowhere with them, it is not a user replaceable
device, my only hope is to stumble apon the nearest thing in a
name brand device,but so far no luck

Just buy a phone that uses AA or AAA cells

Makes a lot more sense to get a Nokia, they use very
few battery types so they are dirt cheap to replace.

I do in fact have a phone that can use AA batterys.

(a battery is more than one cell BTW)

Wrong.

No, sorry but you are wrong on this one...

Nope.

http://www.collinsdictionary.com/dictionary/english/battery

quote
noun (plural) -teries
two or more primary cells connected together, usually in series,
to provide a source of electric current
unquote

Note the two or more bit....

No general dictionary is the definitive source on a technical matter
like that.

The technical description is clear - two or more cells. It is the
common or laymans description that you are relying on - not the
technical one!

Then there's the whole reason a collection of cells was originally called
a battery. The word itself means a group of things.

A battery of guns is a more than one gun.
A battery of tests is more than one test.
Battery hen farming is multiple hens in cages.

In all instances the word "battery" denotes multiples of something.

Wrong, as always, most obviously with the crime of battery.

In the case of electrical storage devices multiple cells. Just because the
layman doesn't understand this and has taken to calling cells batteries
doesn't make it right.

Just because you don’t have a fucking clue about how
living languages operate, doesn’t make you right.

That said however, since when did being right be a prerequisite for a word
or phrase entering the Engish language?

Wrong. This might come as a shock to you but some words in the English
language have more than one meaning.

My usage os the phrase "in all instances" above rather obviously (to most
people) meant in all *quoted* instances. That's how the langauge works, if
you write a list of instances then immediately afterwards say "in all
instances" it's taken as read that you're reffering to the listed.....

Fuck this, it's starting to feel like trying to teach a pig to waltz.

LOL. While we're handing out free observations you should head off to Syria
and put that agression to good use, give the missus a break.
