Solar Power Outdoor Light

I have a small Solar powered pathway lantern that no longer works,When I looked inside I see there are two batteries in there.Is there a way to get new batteries for these things or should I just toss it? Such a shame to toss it because it is...

I can change mine. Mine requires 2 AA rechargable. You have to use rechargables since the solar panel is charging them.

I have a cheap four color diode from a rechargeable solar outdoor light that I want to install inside my motorhome and run it off my 12v battery bank but I need to know how to reduce the power so that it will not burn out the diode.
