This is the Lithium Battery for Mindstorms NXT - unfortunately, while the
S@H page clearly states that you require the additional purchase of #9833
Transformer Pack sold separately, there is no way to buy this with the 9798
kit shown on S@H site.

you can use the standard train transformer.

That is true, but I think this is more about the fact that the standard train
transformer is not available from S@H (at least not to Australia), so anyone
reading the Battery information and not knowing what the standard train
transformer is would be a little confused when they try to purchase one from
S@H.

Sure, I'm just trying to be helpful.

When I bought my battery packs in Oberhausen I didn't know
whether I could use the train transformer, and neither did
the shop staff (they didn't have the transformer in stock).
Later at home I found out it was indeed the correct one,
from comparing the specs.

Doesn't help you much in Australia I guess,
unless you also already got one ...
