Post by: Paul Lamb on May 29, 2018, 07:01:23 PM
I have a  original Big Hauler90-0100  great  condition  but  only  runs on D battery  need the adapter cable  to use  rechargeable  7.6  V  battery or  a schematic  that  shows  the pin outs  for the cable  so  I  can make one

Wouldn't that be 9 Volts?

The rechargable battery pack for the Big Hauler is a 7.2V sub-C type used in R/C vehicles. The voltage is a bit lower than 6 D-cells, limiting the top speed, but being rechargable eliminates the need to keep buying batteries.

The connector on the battery pack is the type used by Tamiya for their R/C models.
