Rechargeable battery pack for old White's 5000/D ser.2
I have an older model White's 5000/D ser. 2 that uses a rechargeable 9v. and 12v. Nicad battery packs which seen some useage over the years. I would like to upgrade to a new type of battery packs such as LiPo or so that can be recharged too.
The old White's charger has the two 9v. type connectors coming from the bottom which in turn attach to the corrosponding battery packs. On the back of the charger, it's inscribed 8.7 VDC @ 150 mA and the other says 11.6 VDC @ 150 mA and made by "Dynamic Instrument Corp." The manual says that the 8 cell battery pack is 9.6 volts and the 6 cell battery pack is 7.2 volts.
Correct me if I'm wrong in my math, but isn't the 8 cell AA's combined at 12 volts and the 6 cell AA's combined at 9 volts? What's up with the difference in voltage?
I'm not really an expert in electronics and any help would greatly be appreciated in trying to find some up to date rechargeable battery packs.
Thanks . . .
