*nod* Did that last fell. Nothing open, however it is possible that one 
of the windings has shorted to itself somewhere along the line. I'll see 
if I can post resistance values.

Yup. It is what was in there when I got it.

Both were replaced.

I think the transformer is shot. For the short term I'll charge with the 
little bench supply (2a max), then figure out if I can build or buy a 
120v to 50v power supply for it. Getting 48v actually should not be a 
problem as that's what telco equipment runs at and that would be a lot 
closer to what a flooded NiCD needs...
Hm.
