I have 2 powerlights from the late 90's, maybe early 2000's & I have lost the charger. The booklett says: POWERLIGHT-Rechargeable version (P/N 30-031-X00) SPECIFICATIONS: Lead acid battery: Gates 6V-5Ah (08090012), Charger: automatic 220V (optional 110V)
Recharging operation - WARNING: use only the SCUBAPRO charger (P/N 30-030-117). I called SCUBAPRO & he said they don't sell them any more & to look on the internet. I tried that & my eyes glazed over & my head started to hurt. :-} I need to charge them so I can sell them. Where can I get a charger? Can I use a standard 6V recharger? Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

You need charger for Sealed Lead-Acid batteries ... nothing special , these bateries needs CONSTANT VOLTAGE and needs VOLTAGE LITLE LOWER or EQUAL that is prescribed ! Normal ''car chargers '' that works also on lead acid , have a little higher output but that can ''overburn'' SLA battery.

Charger for you : SLA charger

As I see you have in plug standard RCA connector with + in the centre and - on outside ( you can get that in almost any store with electro- material ) you just need someone that solder them on out leads of yours charger
