Author Topic: Rechargable batteries for Pro-lite LED sign Stephen Frazza Expert Film Handler Posts: 161 From: Nutley, NJ, USA Registered: Mar 2004 posted 07-12-2005 01:00 PM                        I have these Pro-lite LED 1 line signs. Some have started losing their memory overnight when the power gets killed to them. So I opened one up and found that there is a little rechargable battery soldered onto the board.It is a 3.6 volts 60 ma battery. So I want to put a new battery in but I can't seem to find them online anywhere. Am I right in thinking this will fix the problem? Any ideas on where to get the battery? I didn't know if this should go here or ground level but I figured the technical aspect put it here.  |  IP: Logged Mitchell Dvoskin Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1869 From: West Milford, NJ, USA Registered: Jan 2001 posted 07-12-2005 01:22 PM                     Not online, but try: Wayne Electronics - Route 23 Wayne NJ Lashen Electronics - Denville NJ  |  IP: Logged Daryl C.
