Frank or Ken, I just went and dug out my Dad's old camera and flash. The Yashica Electro 35 GS with Rollie E17C flash plus battery was $143.30 CDN in 1973. I think I will give it a try. I have the flash charging now. The manual says the battery for the Yashica was a 5.6v mercury battery, Mallory PX32 or Eveready E164. What battery did you use?
