You can use any newer Husqvarna 18v battery. This is an essential for any home-owner. I have cut several without any issues. Starts easily every time hot or cold. I can start easily and I'm very happy so far.

Husqvarna 440EII162P Final Thoughts
"Only 2 downsides I found."
2 cycle oil has improved much since then. I was skeptical about this poll saw. But see above-can't give 10 year review on this. I simply unlocked it and it continued cutting. This DOES NOT have an adjustable flow bar oiler.
