If your looking for a pedestrian stacker (walk-behind) then you have no choice but to go electric. The others are right in saying what they have as most second hand electric trucks come complete with a totally shagged battery!. If your looking along the lines of a 1000kg stacker (especially the older Crown kit) then it's probably gonna take 4 (6v) mono-bloc batteries,so price 4 new one's into your spend. The trucks are generally very reliable before the 7-10000 hour mark so less than this and new batts should be spot on for your needs. Charge about once a week to conditon the cells then you should be good for several years!.
Hope that's a help and feel free to ask if I can help anymore!

Fact of the week
The two internal cavities in our nose called nostrils function as separate organs. Each nostril has its own set of turbinates and olfactory receptors. The two independent organs work together through a mechanism called the nasal cycle, where one nostril is dominant for air intake while the other rests and is better at detecting scents.
