Battery job sx 240

Battery job sx 240

2004-11-22 by texhand

Changed battery at home.
Used Radio shack 3.6v 170 mah nickel-cadmium to replace:
GS Japan storage battery co. 3.6v 150mah lot # 084f3
I guess I have an 1984 model 240?

Reluctantly, I cut the old battery out using a dramel and nippers,
leaving as much of the old joint as possible. I soldered 2 lead wires,
ran to side and out back through previously drilled hole ( someone
elses work). Soldered wires to leads of new battery and hung off the
back for easy replacement. A little immagination and the battery
hanger will look ok.


Works fine!

Once I get my sx 210 to save patches, I plan to do the same Job.

I am missing the sequencer button cover, other than that my sx 240 is
up to great condition.
