I have one of these. Actually I have more than one.

On one of them, it will not charge. It just quit. It's dead, and putting it on the charger does nothing. I realize these are rechargeable batteries, but is there ANY chance the battery is replaceable? Just wondering if anyone has one of these and if this has happened to them?

This is the coolest spotlight I ever had...........hate to lose one.

Well, I'll be. Never mind.

6 little tiny screws holding it together. I started taking them out to see if I could get to a battery to change it, and somehow it started working. Put the screws back in, plugged it up to charger, and the charger light comes on.

Some kinda minor short.

Never mind, carry on.
