WTB: battery power pack for 422 scope.
|
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,

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. 73, Jeff/N0DY Sent from my iPhone On Jun 4, 2022, at 9:11 PM, greenboxmaven via groups.io <ka2ivy@...> wrote: |

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.

Thank you for the reply. The 422 scope is many times the size of a 222 or 224, a totally different design.

Oops! Sent that waaay too early this morning. Somehow I read 222 and responded accordingly. Sorry for the confusion and BW.

Hi Ross,
I'd really like to take credit for the design, but it originated with someone else who agreed to license the design to me (I checked even though it had a Creative Commons license). I didn't use his case design. I instead modified a case design I found on Thingiverse. There's a great YouTube video about the charger - and a nice writeup at Tektronix 222 Battery Pack [Kitsune Denshi] (kitsune-denshi.net)<>. Jeff Tektronix 222 Battery Pack [Kitsune Denshi]<> For those of you interested in a multimedia audio-visual experience, there is a little overview video of the battery pack on youtube here.. If you would like to buy a ready-made replacement battery unit based on this design, N0DY Electronics is building and selling them here. kitsune-denshi.net []<> Tektronix 222 / 224 Li-Ion Battery Pack<> I made a battery pack for my Tek 222 which takes standard 18650 Li-Ion cells. It's slightly over the top, but designing and building it was good fun.More det... youtu.be ________________________________ From: [email protected] <[email protected]> on behalf of si_emi_01 <wellington@...> Sent: Monday, June 6, 2022 8:03 AM To: [email protected] <[email protected]>; ka2ivy@... <ka2ivy@...> Subject: Re: [TekScopes] WTB: battery power pack for 422 scope.
