I tried this URL & got an "invalid"  notice so I stripped the URL back 
down to
just the <http://www.batteryforall.com/> and Wow!  They have batteries 
for my little
280c!  The one drawback is that it costs 97.40!  Would be fun to have 
it though,
as the battery was long gone when I bought it!  They also have one for 
the
2300 - also 97.40.
