[Lowfer] Ryco 6040 as a receiver

I use a standard 12 VDC 7.2AH battery for "all" of my Rycom receivers.
Pick up a bunch from time to time when the Backup lighting batteries are 
replaced
here. Part number info is CSB Battery Co LTD GP 1272 F2 12V 7.2Ah.
Still using them and if/when they stop recharging I toss them.

I extanded the leads for the original battery to exit the case at the rear. 
Allowed suffecient
length to reach the terminals on the battery while it sits on top of the 
Rycom case. This also reminds me to check/change
the batteries when they "STOP TAKING A CHARGE"!!!

I know this may seem strange but most of the batteries I get are still in 
use. The ones
that came with my units were dead for a long time and would NOT take a 
recharge!

If you pay postage I will send one or two to you!
