I bought a strobo 500HV couple decades ago and have not use it since the battery died on me. Does anyone know where I can find a battery for the unit or a schematic to build a rechargeable battery pack for the unit? I have very little luck finding a 500RG pack on ebay.

I have also acquired a stroboflash IV lamp head and a cable to work with the strob 500. Does anyone know the part number number for the electron tube used in the stroboflash IV lamp head?
Thanks in advance.

Hi Frank,

Your question may have already been answered but I asked a similar question a couple of months ago because I had a dead 500RG battery pack. I purchased 8 D nicad batteries and replace those in my 500RG pack. They are wired in series to make a 12 volt rechargeable pack.

I also have a 500RG flash head that needs a flash tube or purchase a working head used from someone. Let us know if you find parts.
