EDIT: I had to open the vibrator and clean something in it before it would run on that Philco, which also has a synchronous vibrator. seems like I also had to replace the capacitors around it too but I don't remember....
This unit uses a 6 pin positive ground vibrator. Which I can't even get it out of its socket to check it.

As for golf cart batteries go, I saw those over at batteries plus and thought about getting one of those, but the cheapest one they had was $150...
