Welch Allyn 3.5V Rechargeable Handle with Transformer (71062-C)

The Welch Allyn 71062-C is a robust 3.5V rechargeable handle equipped with an integrated charging transformer, offering a convenient and reliable power solution for Welch Allyn diagnostic instrument heads. Designed for seamless plug-in charging, this handle eliminates the need for separate desk chargers by allowing direct connection to standard wall outlets (220–250V), making it especially suitable for clinics, hospitals, and field settings.

Built with a durable chrome-plated brass body and a textured, non-slip grip, the handle ensures comfort and control during examinations. It comes pre-fitted with a long-lasting nickel-cadmium (Ni-Cd) rechargeable battery and features a rheostatic control ring for smooth, adjustable light intensity.
