Slightly O/T Grenet Batteries

Post by USlakeside »

I was cleaning out the attic at my folks place, and found this Grenet (?) battery I bought as a teenager. Its not signed, and has no serial number. Its hand blown, the elements in the jar are intact, and it has the cables. I know these were used on Class M's etc. I am trying to find the value. Any help? Thanks!

....It measures about 9 in tall to the rim, then about 10 if you include the "nodes" at the top.

Below is a link to one which recently sold on ebay for $299. I thought they typically sold for a little more, so maybe some are more valuable than others. Having the original cables is a nice addition.
