    It's a European (Bundeswehr) Kollsman. They operate on 3Volts.  In the carrying case you get a cute little aluminium torch like grandma used to have, which takes two (or 3) A (or C) batteries.  I'll check tomorrow; senior moment.  It beats 3xPP3 batteries in series any day.  They only last a few minutes with a 28V USAF Kollsman.  In the end, I found a 'Chinese' 24V power supply on eBay to power my USAF Kollsman.  DaveP
