..

e-bay or a battery shop
chargers on e-bay have a list of what batteries they will work with

either one they are both inexpensive DMM accuracy ? will be good enough for 12 VDC

There is supposed to be a Phillips head LH thread screw in the chuck. I have seen the screw head worn down so you can no longer get a screwdriver to work.
We usually cut the chuck off with a metal chop saw just at the screw - thread what remains of the chuck off, which usually leaves 1/4" of the screw sticking out of the spindle - remove with vise grips.
Its not an easy prospect when that happens.

The screw you are trying to remove is left hand thread. You must turn is clockwise to remove it.
Hope this helps
