Polaroid's flat OEM battery, from the SX-70 filmpak

I think it was called the "PolaPulse". (?)

Wow, that's a fast respone! Yes, that's it, and instantly got me a datasheet for their P100,

I thought it was called PolaPulse.

Tradename *on* the battery packs from filmpacks for their OneStep Flash camera: "Polaroid PolaPulse(TM) Battery". Size: 3.50 X 4.25 x 1.70 (appx); nominal voltage 6.0V (after all of these years, mine are around 5.8V). As i remember it, they use the Leclanche design. Approximate size of the active area is 2.0 X 1.5; if you want i could Snail one to you.

That PDF designates a PolaPulse(TM) that is different in configuration than the ones i mentioned (and have). Same technology and basic design.

Are these dims in inches? I thought they were about 1/4" thick; even the whole film pack wasn't an inch and 3/4; more like 0.7 for the whole film pack, IIRC.

How about posting a pic somewhere?

Thanks, Rich

IME, they were unlabelled. The one in the camea packs were of a carbon- zinc leclanche design. I have a pocket flashlight here someplace with one. I have used them to power a portable radio, and in fact Polaroid had a radio you could plug whole spent film packs into, to power the radio.

Actual measurements; yes, inches. From the 600 Plus film packs; obviously different than the PolaPack 100. Maybe i could Snail one to you.

The ones i have (from Polaroid 600 Plus packs) are all labelled, i wrote what i read - if theer had been no labelling or designations, i would not have responded.

Oh, that won't be necessary. :-) Apparently I've only seen the model 100; and there's no reason to think you're making anything up. :-)

Thanks! Rich
