The battery in my DM-5010 Multimeter died the other day. I am in the
process of looking
for a replacement. I know very little about batteries and charger circuits.
The service manual gives the following information
BT1121 146-0037-00 Battery Storage:2.4V, 150MAH (Page 9-6)
(From the MSDS this is a NiCad battery:
http://www.tek.com/Measurement/cgi-bin/framed.pl?Document=/Measurement/Service/msds/&FrameSet=service )
and
"This +5 volts is also applied to R1131, charging the battery BT1121
when the instrument is operating." (manual change c2/981 page 32)
If any one has found a suitable replacement, any information would be
appreciated.
The only battery which I found to be close is from Radio Shack:

This is a 650 mAh battery and I don't know if it would work at this charge
level of 5V.
The size is simmilar to the current battery in the PI.
Current
31mm long 15mm diameter
RS
26mm long 22.5mm diameter
Again any help would be great,
-Dale
