Does anyone have info on the 'Graflex Stob 500 HV' It looked like an 500-RG unit but when it arrived the case bottom was totally vacant.
Batteries? or something else missing?

Thanks

Strobe 500 and Globe Strobe 500 1971 Singer Graflex division manual, 26 pages. Calls for a 450V battery but does not list any manifacture part number.
Strobomatic 500 1968 Graflex, Inc./a subsidiary of The Singer Company; manual 21 pages. Same as above HV uses 450V dry battery, no reference to a manifacture or part/model number.

Thanks for the info. You're a great resource.

The top unit that came with the 'HV' base is just like my 'RG' and will power up and flash on the 'RG' base. The RG has three voltage outputs -5, -10, -10. Doubt that a 450v battery links into my system. I think my purchase was a marriage of the two. I'm going to take a shot at converting a computer switched power supply the provide the -10,-10,-5 VDC
