Need Battery For Beaulieu 5008

[Tim Walton]

HI All -

 

I have an old Beaulieu 5008s I bought used back about 1983. I used it a few times, but then it's sat in a closed case for the past 30 or so years. Battery's completely dead and won't charge. I've been looking around to see if anyone can recell the battery or if there's a DIY page that explains it, but haven't found anything so far, and the leads on this site are all fairly old. Anyone have any suggestions?

 

Thanks!

Anyone know what the mm size thread on the handle for the battery is on a beaulieu 5008 or 3008?

I'm going to make my own battery grip.

Hi maybe this will help

Thanks so much! I'll check it out and see if I can recell it myself.
