Try batteries.com!

Agreed, I have a miniature Super-VHS camera and recorder sold in the '90s (a JVC SC-F007) that had a special battery, can't find a replacement battery now for love nor money. Yeah, there are lots of cheaper better camera units available now but this was one of the first really mobile sports cameras. It came in a slimline aluminum James Bond type attache case with all the attachments. You could mount the camera part (about 2.5" by 5") on a helmet and a cord ran down to the small recorder (4.5" x 5") on your belt. I still have lots of images of my other half and I on small Super-VHS-C tapes from that unit. And being Super-VHS it had good quality image for the time. That was back when people at Disney World were still hoisting 8 pound cannons on their shoulder to video their family fun and we zipped around with this little cracker jack box in our hand.
A few years ago I thought I was in luck and had found the exact battery number in a catalog at a specialty battery internet store and paid an arm and a leg for it. But when it arrived it wasn't the same dimensions. Not even close. And yes, it had the same battery numbers but it was a totally different battery. Bummer! However, I did return it and get my money back. I wrote a very detailed letter and a photo of the old battery to help them find the proper replacement, but they were unable to find any references to the specific battery I needed.
But time marches on and the last time I tested the unit with its power cord, the flip up (2"x2.5") display screen didn't work anymore. However it had standard video outputs too and the camera and recorder still worked. Not bad for a 25 year old precision machine. Shame about the display screen though.
...I've had nights like that. Not fun, especially when I was still holding down a full time plus job.
Thanks for the tip, I'll check them out
I am so glad studio is no longer tell ware. I do not know anyone in real life to tell.

Tricky story behind this pic. The dragon there is basically a thunder wyvern so makes zappities all over and such, especially in its wings. This one in particular is a character of my friends, and has the interesting trait in that he likes to eat batteries for some reason. I drew this as a gift for him of his character offering up a pack of batteries to someone ^v^
was thinking of dropping in before

...indeed, temps more "seasonable" here and I can finally see the sky again.
Finally got the last of my stuff out of the old place, now comes the unpacking, but for now a break and a bike ride in the new 'hood to do some much needed marketing as I finally have all my cooking implements (first things I unboxed). Hmm what to do...Fishy? Pasta? Teriyaki and rice, my special Mac with Many Cheeses? Decisions decisions.
Already have a bottle of my favourite Potato Wodka (there happens to be a Boozateria right across the street, and a really nice one at that).
Morning. A mob of raucus white parrots quarreling over dumpster scraps is something you don't often see in the middle of frewway tangles :)
luksusowa?
parrots? they speaking real words?
Wow! That's a lot of parrots!
Dana
..tak.
...well bought s slab of fishy for tomorrow, going to use my special herb rub on it (no longer can do blackened Cajun as that might set the entire building's alarm off
) with buttered baby carrots and my special Garlic/Tarragon/Black Pepper roasted red potatoes.
For tonight it was a big fat bratwurst with baked beans tonight, washed it down with a Medio Litro bottle of "real" Coke (the kind from south of the border).
Feels so good to be able to really cook again, instead of just warming up convenience foods in the nuker
On the ride home I noticed water beginning to fall from the sky, felt absolutly refreshing. Been mostly light, but it makes the air smell so nice and clean again after all that smoke we've been enduring.
Think I'm going to sleep very well tonight
Rum Balls
1 12-ounce package (2 cups) semisweet chocolate chips
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup light corn syrup
2/3 cup rum
5 cups finely crushed vanilla wafers (2 12oz boxes)
powdered sugar
In a heavy medium saucepan, heat chocolate pieces over low heat until melted, stirring constantly. Remove from the heat. Stir in sugar and corn syrup. Stir in rum till well mixed.
Grind about 10 wafers at a time in blender (any more than that and the process takes far longer to do becuase the larger pieces quickly lodge in the wafer powder out of reach of the blades instead of bouncing around in the blender getting ground up). Sift through a strainer; anything that won't go through the strainer will make noticeable unpleasant chunks in the rum balls.
Add vanilla wafers to chocolate mixture and mix well. Let stand about 30 minutes. Shape into 1-inch balls. Roll in powdered sugar.
....mmm I can bake again as well.
...and I found both a Flutterby and Flower cookie cutters.
...rum flutterbys.
Of course I am not allowed the key ingredient in my house.
...fluterby kitty
Pretty sure they were corellas they eat anything not nailed down tight :)
