I'm using the old battery at the moment, now correctly put in of course. If it wasn't following the standard of the flat end going with the spring bit of the socket, it wouldn't be working now.

I'm pretty sure that it wasn't moved when I was opening it up. The battery fits pretty well into the socket and requires a bit of force to pull out so I couldn't have accidentaly moved. This has got to be the strangest thing thats happened to me (my ufo sighting comes in second and I like to think that was an unusual optical illusion).
