Or you could sell some small batches to your buddies on here at a small profit and get some of your costs back Wink

Silly question, but are both the battery terminals the same or will you have to get a 1,000 of the other one made by this mysterious company? Smile

Great question. I asked but did not get a good reply back as to if it was both. The will fit in either it is just the would look best with both the + and -.

I was thinking of making a repair kit but need to try and fix what I have first.. Big Grin

If they are you could get a good little side-line going selling them on eBay or something lol

If not? Well I'm sure you'll find something they will fit eventually...

Believe it or not, I was thinking 1000 would not be enough. I was trying for more, but apparently the shipping would have been outrageous. I am content with the 1000 for now. The "broker" (person in china I was working with) asked if they were for resale or personal use?? I cannot believe that these would only be manufactured by one company, but who knows. The odd thing is, they are still in some of the newer trains and accessories, like the J-13 station i just received has them.

I should have some left over after repairing what i have, and will check on here first to see if anyone is in need. I have tracked down the right size brass rivets too in order to secure these, which was a chore in itself.. Dodgy
