RE: TC-770




Hello again Victor,

With regards to battery replacement, if you are anything like me and are drowning in ocean of AA NiMH batteries, you can buy very cheap adapters to C and D size. The Ds can hold 3 AAs, so are usefully more powerful than the expensive and relatively gutless NiCad D size available these days. The 510/5550 holds 8 D type btw

You have motivated me to have another look at my TC 510-2. Would you believe the original NiCad battery pack accepted a charge?! I now see that my functional issues are probably self inflicted. Before I got the NiCad pack, I just used a 12v D.C. power source using the connector. I assumed (!!) centre pin hot, but no, it appears the sleeve is positive when I measure with battery pack installed. Hopefully I've just burnt a resistor. So, bear that in mind when yours arrives!

Regards,
Phil
