Re: XKmotor manual

Thank you so much!

The link allowed me to at least see what a battery pack would look
like. Do you know anything about replacing a battery pack? It looks as
though they made a rechargeable pack also. Might someone have adapted a
power pack from another camera? It would be interesting to me if anyone
in the group has any ideas.

Thanks, JT
