Have no idea about the cost of a battery for a Gem, though, sorry. You might want to the Battery Guys (I think that's their name) a call. They have a pretty good rep about being honest and fair.
thanks red
we check on it, give it a tickle and a charge and fire it up a few times a year, and have visitors check on it, but the charger is supposed to be 'smart'

we have an idea of the cost of the battery which is why we're trying to seek alternatives to this morning's shocker - and it's high voltage, too!
