You can try a 6/12 volt car battery charger, good for at least 5 amps.
You have to use a 1000mfd or more across the output of the charger. Observe polarity! The set uses a synchronous vibrator.
Anyone that has been in this game for any length of time, has a high current battery eliminator.
I had my Knight-kit battery eliminator since I first started repairing radios over 60 years ago.
