    Hey, looking for the physical dimensions of this battery. I've read here about people using two smaller sticks paralleled together, but I'm curious if this would work: https://www.ebay.com/itm/2-pcs-7-5-...echargable&_from=R40&rt=nc&_trksid=m570.l1313

    I don't even know if this player works, it has no battery at all and the external battery compartment is missing too. I'm willing to take a $8 on it, if this will fit. :)

    It's an HS-PL55. I'm keeping an eye open for the battery holder, but unfortunately I don't have one yet.

    You can find one on yahoo japan auction site. Be patient and you can find one. I searched for you but today it is not available. They all sell it with a walkman (which doesn't work)
    I don't want to disappoint you but your walkman most probably wont work. I have several of them and none of them work. As far as i remember all of my HS-PL55 have capacitor leaks and they need to be repaired.

    Thanks for the help! Bad news about that Walkman tho. I'll keep an eye open anyway. Maybe I can get lucky? Thanks for the help tho!
