I have aquired an older HID dive light that I need to source a battery for. May have been a mixture of Halcyon and Salvo parts. Light works with a battery I had, but the battery I have is WAY too short and slides back and forth in the can. I attached pics of light etc . I believe it may be an 18 or 21 w ? Battery has to fit in a 2.125 ID cannister and needs to be about 8.2 or 8.5" long. How do I go about determining AH and Voltage of the pack etc? Thanks for any help on finding a comapatble battery or specs!

Looks like a Helios “9ah” can. Good piece of kit.

Some of those batteries from Battery Space BARELY fit in there. I had to move the board on one of mine to make it work.

Make sure you get the ones with the proper LG or Sanyo cells. The cheaper ones will absolutely fail on you.
