Hi, all concerned:

I have 3 old, well-used Wahl rechargeables and charger-holders: 2 black
"slow charge" units, and one orange "fast charge" unit. I used the
beejeebers out of them in my spare-time-electronic-repairs-shop days.

New Wahl tips, batteriesamerica.com replacement solder-tab nimh C-cells, and
some charger mods to work around the evils mentioned below, would rejuvenate
them nicely.

Best offer gets the lot, and pls include $6 for shipping in your offer.

Tks for reading.

the complete iron in a stand . The unit I use is called ISOTIP ,made in
USA by Wahl Clipper Corporation.
The iron was purchased in 1980 and used regularly ,however the charger is
very primative (just a transformer with an embedded diode in the
secondary low voltage winding), resulting in relatively short battery
life . I now use the iron with a homebrew charger permitting 2
selectable charge rates being 300 and 10 mA , the first used while using
the iron , the 10 mA rate when idle (trickle charging). Now the batteries
hold their charge well and the iron is ready for use at all times .
Battery replacement however is awkward .
