I picked up a new / old stock mic the other day on fleaBay for an old Sears Roadtalker. It is a 5 pin DIN style mic. Anyhow did not realize the mic was a power mic until I got the thing. I have no idea what type of battery this thing takes and can't find any info on the web. Please help.... |

Off hand if it does not take the standard 9 volt battery I would guess it takes the 7 volt round battery. Copper Part# B30-00004 BATTERIES 7 VOLT BATT. [B30-00004] $1.99 Looks like a penlite battery but about 1/2 the size. Hope this help's, Lon~Tech808 N9CEF CEF#808 Radio Enthusiast!

I think I have seen a few, and they run off a AA battery I think. Not that powerful, but better then nothing. I haven't seen one in a little while though. Mike Moderator120 CEF#0120/HAM #222 KB1NYD CVC#0041

The AA fits...would a 7 volt be about the same in size? There is no LED to indicate power when keyed. Guess I just need to plug into radio and try it. Thanks for the help!! |

7 volt is shorter, and fatter then a AA, and there is no light, that's because the AA is not as good as a 9volt. But hook it up and see, remember it's no Turner or D104 mic, so it's no power house! Mike Moderator120 CEF#0120/HAM #222 KB1NYD CVC#0041
