WS-58 VPU schmatic
VPU Schmatic and parts
The VPU is a fantastic piece of kit, it would not have taken much to turn it into a universal power supply capable of powering many different radios, mine detectors and other electronic equipment of the day.
A multi position selector switch, adaptor cords and a few discrete components plus the ability to be recharged from any 6 volt vehicle and you could tell the QM to keep his short life battery packs.
Just my opinion.
I thought I was wrong once but I was mistaken.
