I was lucky enough to win an old Fisher 555D/B on Ebay recently and need info on the charger (which wasn't part of the deal) for the detector. The wires from the charge jack go into a rats nest so tracing them would be a task to put it mildly. I have the manuals for the detector but it says nothing about voltage or polarity. Any help here would be appreciated.
The reason I bought such an old machine is the Fisher 555D was the first real detector I ever owned and it paid for itself many times over. Air testing proves that this one has excellent depth just like I remember on my original one (10" on a dime using an 8" coil). I believe under some conditions it will out hunt the modern machines. Test results will follow as weather and time permits.
