Dan Dan Hollands 1120 S Creek Dr Webster NY 14580 585-872-2606 www.QuickScoreRace If the plus terminal of one battery is connected to the minus terminal of the next for all 4 batteries they are in series. If you have a volt meter you can measure the voltage at the point where the batteries connect to the unit and you should measure 5 to 6 volts. If you can't figure it out to do this you may want to reconsider taking the unit apart and reworking it. Dan -- Dan Hollands 1120 S Creek Dr Webster NY 14580 585-872-2606 www.QuickScoreRace.com |

Although it is listed as "Digital Camera Power Supply", it'll probably work. Radio Shack catalog # 273-1695. I paid around $20 approx. 3 yrs ago. |
