You can order it from Black and Decker, Vector sold all their product lines to them in 2006 and they carry the replacement battery cheaper than anywhere else I found.

I have been searching for a good while now for this for you and have found that it is not replaceable. Once that battery wears out in your unit it is impossible to replace, it is hard wired into the device and no replacement batteries exist.

You can buy a complete replacement for less than $58 shipped if you wish, if you absolutely need one with a working original battery this appears to be the only choice:

The best would be to take out the battery, which is necessary to replace it anyway, (you'll nee a phillips screwdriver for that) and unplug it.

On the side there should be text similar to: "12V" and "3Ah". You should have a 3Ah battery in it, but they come in a variety of shapes.

You can then check and order on Digikey or Nextag the correct battery size and put it into the flashlight. Check that the black wire is on the black tab or the one designated by a '-'.
