Hi! Found this at a local clear up...  Cleaned it,got some new wires on and:Workes fine! There is no brand or something on it.Only the gauge shows "British made". Does anybody know how old it is and who the manufacturer is? Greet |

I think my dad had one very similar possibly the same one. I kept it for years for my 6 volt bikes
I'd guess it is mid to late 60's

Looks like an old Davenset, as above from the 50s/60s I should think

according to the upwards reading ammeter my money is on "Transclamps"
apart from that i think it´s very,very nice and thx to British quality probably undestroyable!

Indeed, my dad has a similar-looking (same size, shape and colour) Transclamps Type 701, which is rated at 4A, though the ammeter goes up to 6A, however, the 6-0-12 Volts terminal switch runs horizontally across the unit, rather than vertically.

But there is nothing on the charger that shows "transclamp" or type 701...... Is that different to the modells on the UK market? Maybe only on the export modells there is nothing about type and brand... Greet |

maybe the id-sticker has gone missing over the years, as it looks well used. have you had a look inside, if there is any additional information?

Not sure. Here's one the same as my dad's: tinyurl.com/4hkam5jeAs you'll notice, a very similar design, apart from the Volts switch orientation. |

I found one almost the same amongst my Dad's stuff just recently too. Watch out for selenium rectifiers in these old battery chargers. When they let go due to old age they let out some foul smelling smoke which is pretty toxic too.
