Hi Everyone,

The battery pack in my XL-2p is shot. I'm wondering if anyone has tried this:

It seems like the correct dimensions. However, I don't think it has the terminals on top that would contact with the remote. By any change, has anyone tried this?

I'll check both of mine when I get home, but I am pretty sure this radio has the contact points to complete the circuit and that is more like a receiver plug. So you could modify the plug or find rechargable batteries.


I love this radio.

I would just find AA rechargeable batteries.. I have an XL2P too and now itching to get back in service

That is the correct battery. The connector is right on the bottom when you remove the battery door. just plug it in.
