MINELABExcalibur II Spare NIMH Battery Pack

If my Excaliber II is no longer functioning even with the new battery, is it returnable...??

Why does the description say 8 aa batteries required? this pack should contain the batteries in the sealed unit.

Is this the sealed battery pack with the rechargable battery sealed inside or not? It says 8 aa batteries required. Is this just an empy shell?
