Re: Where to find red Sanyo SCR NiCd?
There were also some red 1700 but this was a different cell. I think everybody knows the black Sanyo N-SCRC 1700 from the past with actually 2 versions. One of this version (the cheaper one) also was offered in red heatshrink. But both this 1700 and the older 1400 cells did look different to the one above. The heatshrink was not just plain red but things like type of cell, capacity and others were printed in black colour to the heatshrink.
So this red 1700 can´t be the same old cell.

Thanks guys... i guess ill just keep an eye on ebay. (0 there at the moment) I'm surprised you can't get them anymore from a normal retailer anywhere.

Re: Where to find red Sanyo SCR NiCd?
anyone kept any NOS race cells from BITD? eg Reedy Parma matched sets loose cells
always wondered how nicads survive in the shrinkwrapped box without any attention,
would the cells ever leak? or go green at the -ve like used cells do?

I have a pack of SCRs still in its original bag, there are some green stuff on some of the cells. That was about 6mos ago, not sure what it has now nor where it is exactly.

Re: Where to find red Sanyo SCR NiCd?
I still use my batteries (1400scr & 1700sce)from 20 years ago...and they still have pretty much the same capacity. I have a victor IQ2 and I take really good care of them.tamiya wrote:anyone kept any NOS race cells from BITD? eg Reedy Parma matched sets loose cells

I also have some new cells...but I sold most of them when I first joined the board. I didn't realize there was such a high demand for them.

Re: Where to find red Sanyo SCR NiCd?
The originals were 1200 SCR and 1400 SCR's.


P-170

I also believe it's better to have all the correct era stuff Batteries, Electronic's etc....

Re: Where to find red Sanyo SCR NiCd?
Any of these help?
P170s, Sanyo 1700s in a couple different types, Cadnica 1200SC and KR1700SCE.... I found a couple of stick packs too, red 1400SCR and Sanyo Trinity EX-SPEC as well, but no photo... not sure what size the Trinity pack is, as it lists on the cell as EX-9000S 1.2V.....
Just taking up space here..... some would need more cleaning than others, I guess...
