Expand or Restore Your Ikelite DS Battery Packs – Even Flooded Ones!

🔋 3,600 mAh Superior Capacity

Boost your Ikelite pack’s performance by approximately 5%* (compared to a brand-new Ikelite #4066.5 NiMH Battery Pack rated at 3,450mAh).

* A new Ikelite #4066.5 NiMH Battery Pack has a capacity of ~3,450 mAh at 7.2V.


💡 New: Now Accepting FLOODED Ikelite Battery Packs for Repair!

If your Ikelite battery pack has been flooded, there’s still a very high chance (99%) I can restore it — even with corrosion present, as long as the outer housing is structurally intact.

Flooded pack repair includes:

  • Full disassembly and internal inspection

  • Corrosion removal from the circuit board

  • Wiring replacement if necessary

  • Charging contact replacement (if required)

📌 Note: If the battery housing is cracked or physically compromised, I typically cannot guarantee a waterproof seal or reliable performance.

⚠️ Parts required for flooded pack repair (e.g., contacts) are additional and will be quoted based on inspection.


✅ Quality Assurance:

I personally use these refurbished packs and have achieved consistent performance equal to — or better than — new Ikelite packs.
