Not long ago the battery on my Dymo 280 died and was pretty surprised to find that the cost of replacing it (~$30) was about the same as I paid for the product. The battery consists of two small 14430 cells in a plastic package that isn't serviceable.

For awhile I limped along by buying a few cells online and jerry-rigging my own connectors with a soldering iron but after the printer itself finally died recently, I actually replaced it with an _older_ 160 model that uses AAA cells instead - go figure - newer is worse.
