Proto sound 1

What was the brand of "batteries" to replace the Proto 1 ones? And are they still available? I picked up a Proto 1 engine at York and do not feel like frying it.

Any brand will do, but you might want to replace it with one of J&W Electronics BCR capacitor. They are usually set up in the Orange Hall. Here is their web address: http://www.jandwelectronics.com

Thanks, BCR was the one I was trying to think of.
