Sorry, I meant to add that the batteries I'm looking for are either
tye BA-5590/U or BB-590/U

Thank you for any and all assistance!

Watch for "SAFT" manufactured 5590's. These are quite dangerous. They're
"Lithium Sulfur Dioxide". Dispose of as "hazardous waste" rather than messin'
with 'em.

The BB-590 is ni-cad; no problems.

Thank you for the warning.

I am still interested in locating a SOURCE for these batteries....at
least for the BB-590 and associated charging unit.

Thanks again.
