I try to avoid things with irreplaceable batteries as much as possible.

  I used to feel that way, but then I've got a drawer full of old gear with replaceable batteries that I can't get the batteries for anymore. Would be much more useful if rechargeable lithium batteries were standardized. Also I probably wouldn't really want to use any of these devices even if I could get a battery for them as the technology has moved so much since I originally got them.

    A lot of those batteries are probably easy enough to source the cells for. Usually just the adapter is what differs. Larger packs are usually discrete cells at that.

      Most of them would be those flat lithium batteries. You can find endless replacements on eBay. Only they are all just as dead as the one you have.

        You can buy them directly from any electronics shop. It's not as if your device maker is rolling their own packs. I would avoid buying sketchy batteries.
