I'm very happy that you all are performing an incredible good job. Furthermore what you did is very useful for all people as me that have electronics as an hobby.Thank you!!!!!
Everything was great, the manual, the response time, the simplicity of the order, and the
Price. The only thing that I could possible say on a negative note would be that the manual I ordered was more for a service tech. There were a lot of schematic diagrams that didn't help me solve the problem. However I would order again and recommend the web sight to others.
I'd been looking for this manual for awhile. Exactly what I needed - and at an excellant price. Thanks!

It must therefore only be fitted in requirement designed specifically for its use. Replacement batteries must be of same type and manufacture. They must be fitted in the same manner and location as the original battery, with the correct polarity contacts observed.
