How to replace rechargeable batteries:
When a rechargeable battery will no longer accept a charge, replace as follows:
- Unscrew bottom cap.
- Shake out old battery.
- Insert replacement battery "bottom" side up.
- CAUTION: Insert battery fully until seated. For convertible handles, match polarity marking with those on instrument when inserting replacement battery.
- Screw bottom cap back into place. Ensure the plastic cap is securely attached to the bottom cap. If the insulator is missing or broken, contact Welch Allyn for a new bottom cap.

Customer Reviews
Correct fit for a vintage (> 50 year old) WA Otoscope Handle 2.4V.
Our otoscope/ophthalmoscope is at least vintage and rarely needed. We were pleased to be able to purchase a replacement batter so that it was again functional. This replacement battery fits and the ophthalmoscope now works. I hope that it remains functional for a long time.
once I identified this as the correct battery for my old Welch Allyn ophthalmoscope/otoscope, I put it in charged it up and began using it. It’s an old model-only number on it is ppl poly red circular insulator at the base of the charging prongs. I purchased it in 1978, I believe.
nice people, sent it fast.
