Description: Here we have a custom made vintage reproduction refillable dry cell battery. Each unit has a epoxied blue top mimicking the original metal top and a sealing plastic cap on the bottom to access dual modern "D" 1.5V alkaline battery holders hidden inside. First and last photos are comparison to a 1955 Eveready Columbia Gray Label original dry cell. Top connections are brass #8/32 thumb screws wired in parallel with quick clip connectors making it easy to wire in serial if desired. Each tube is glued with a retouched replica 1937 Eveready No 6 Dry Cell cardstock label that makes them pop like new! Two "D" 1.5V batteries wired in parallel yields the same original capacity for devices that need to be powered on for longer periods or are on display for sale and are subject to be used frequently. To save on battery costs you can run them with a single "D" battery. Perfect for restoring midland jump spark cigar lighters, buzzers, door bells, games, RCA radios, phones, or anything designed for the vintage 1.5V 6" dry cell battery. These were typically wired in series to bump the voltage required for the device. For example, the Midland cigar lighter shown in the photos used three dry cell batteries wired in series to yield 4.5V. ** PLEASE NOTE: As these are 100% HAND MADE IN THE USA, you agree that while each unit is GUARANTEED FUNCTIONAL, THEY MAY HAVE MINOR IMPERFECTIONS between each unit such as slight epoxy and label color differences or minor label blemishes, see photos for example. We will do our best to match the top colors for multiple quantity orders depending on availability. SOLD INDIVIDUALLY, ADJUST QTY TO PURCHASE ADDITIONAL ITEMS!
