Looking for battery for Magicshine

Last year I purchased two MagicShine lights from Geomangear. I'm looking for battery packs to extend my nighttime riding. Do you have any idea where I can find the proper batteries for my light?

I just bought a MS setup myself and from what I gathered in researching before purchasing is that the 2 major USA online distributors are brightstonesports and lightjunction. They both sell battery packs by themselves backed by an included 6 month warranty. Also only 99ct shipping at both places.

From what i understand, battery packs are interchangable with different magicshine models, unless you have the newer MJ-880. They note the model compatibility in the battery description.

Action LED is a good soure for Magicshine battery. He is reliable and very easy to deal with. He is based in USA and all my shipment is recieved within 5 days.

Buy any 7.2 volt LiIon pack with protection built in, solder on a connector, either taken off an old pack or cut one off of a MagicShine extension cable. I got an 8 cell pack from Tenergy a couple of years ago, it's running great.
