Hi, Can anyone please help to find a battery holder for an elderly Garrett ADS 1. I would pay your price and shipping. l am told that this is now obsolete, so if anyone is scrapping a Garrett of a similar vintage about 1982 approx. it looks like this!!

There are 2 versions of that battery holder. The newer has aluminum stripes for wiring on the board. This one is hopeless to repare. The older version has copper wire strips and pads. You can repair this type by cleaning with an eraser. I have even purchased 9V connectors, separated them and soldered a new contact to the board. Check with plugpopper, he collects those things.
