Wtb Excalibur battery tubes

Any of you excal guys know that the battery tubes tend to crack at the end where the black connector screws on the main unit, and then they will leak. I am looking to buy a battery pod end cap or two that I can take the end cap off of to replace my cracked ones as my batteries are still good and I don't want to fork out $150 for a new battery when all I need is the end cap piece.

Can anyone help me for a fair price? Or does anyone know how to get them from minelab?
 
Buy an alk. pk, they are half the price! They are not rated for the 200 ft, but looking at them, they are the same thing. I sold my original recharge pk, and use the alk. pk exclusively. I also only hunt lakes, but I get 14-15 hrs on 8 alk batt., and then take them out and run them in my xterra for at least another 10 hrs. I would guess it is even longer than that, but I never really got specific on the Xterra hrs.
At least look into the idea, and if it works for you, great. I don't personally know if you will be able to find any end caps, (at least reasonably anyway), but good luck!
 
Thanks for the suggestion but it won't work for me as I dive with the excal but I do have an alkaline set for wading and sand work
 
I dive with mine as well and have never had any issues with the Alkaline tube. The plastic may be a bit different but at 60 ft I have never had an issue. On one of my machines its about 5 years old. You results may vary. On a side note there is a person on fleabay that sells his own version of the stock end cap.
 
Great thanks for the info on the alkaline pack I was a little learn to take it under do you know the fleabay guys name or how it's named so I can find it I'd like to get a couple of these as I have the tubes and batteries

Thanks
