Re: New article and battery search help Message #2 Posted by Ion Abraham (New Mexico) on 17 Dec 2000, 1:07 p.m., in response to message #1 by Katie
Katie,
I'm not sure this is helpful, but I recently (a few months ago) had a couple of 82120's rebuilt by TNR Technical and they did not seem to have any problem with availability of the N75P rechargeable batteries.
The contact person is Marty. He is a treasure trove of information on batteries. Apparently TNR does OEM manufacturing for Sony and other large companies, that is, the company sends them the plastic housing, and they package it with the appropriate batteries. It is not a small time operation.
They did a really professional job, and only charged me $20 per pack. They do not have extra packs, so you have to send them yours (for the plastic).
Note that their address has changed recently:
TNR Technical, Inc.
3400 West Warner Ave. Suite K
Santa Ana, CA 92704
(800) 490-8418
So give Marty a call regarding availability of the rechargeable cells.
Regards,
Ion Abraham
Albuquerque, New Mexico
