**Snaps fingers** There's one at my Grandma's house that's in the condition EXACTLY like you mention.

I take it you want it in grams/Kilograms (Even though mass isn't the same as weight >_&gt

I'd imagine it'd weight the same with any old cartridge.

Don't have one on me right now, but this site lists the with-battery weight as 394 g. So, if you can find the weight of a cartridge and four AA batteries, you can do some math and figure it out.

Already tried ... but many sites gives many different results ... It's a multi-choice question, but the 3 results are similar ...

228 grams
236 grams
245 grams

That's played with a margin of 8 or 10 grams.

Thanks nevertheless.

I believed that this sentence was intended for "WHAT YOU LIKE IS IN THE LIMO" ... I did not know that it was the question which was sent to me. Sorry.
