Could these be original factory batteries ??

[Sgt GrizZ]

I just picked up a project DE Star Wars locally ...very locally - I'm wondering if it's possible these are the orig factory batteries ?? They are Eveready Industrial, Made in USA, states 'Not For Retail Trade' on them. No date on them. They look old skool. Never seen them before and I kind of think I have seen pictures of someone before with similar saying they were originals.

The cable tie was intact when I viewed the machine , I snipped it to take out batteries checking for leakage - Thankfully fine ! The game has been sat non working for years.

Can't believe I'm actually excited about AA batteries I did have a life once, I'll have a look for it later.....

They measured at 1.0v, 1.1v, 1.1v

I think those are maybe 10 years old. The Duracell industrials used to be red before they changed to the orange they are now.

Those are originals in my experience.....that's the brand that Bally Williams used throughout the nineties.....very reliable...

I think Phil Palmer could answer as he used to supply games back in the 90s.

Just as an aside. Those cable ties are releasable so you don’t have to snip and replace them.

Batteries will be coming off board anyway
