Before you buy a battery, are you sure your scope can use it? Type 422 has a modular power supply which can be either of two types. Part number 016-0073-00 permits attachment of a battery pack, while 016-0072-00 is AC only.

Hi Bruce,
I make a replacement battery pack for the 222 scope. It’s out of stock at the moment but I expect to be restocked this week. See it at <>. It will also be back on eBay once I’m restocked.
The battery pack lets you use standard 18650 lithium batteries in place of the original lead acid pack, which is no longer available. It requires no modification to the scope in any way, and fits in the original battery location.

?I picked up a Tektronix 422 at the Rochester hamfest this morning, it works somewhat, the jug is bright, and I think it will restore very well. The manual mentions a battery pack for it, and I would like to find one. I am more concerned about it being complete than whether it works. Thanks,
