Default Web site with battery scans?

Way back when I remember a web site with a fairly extensive collection of scans etc of old batteries, including those for valve radios. I seem to remember that it went under a name something to do with Roberts Radios.

Unfortunately, after several changes of computer I no longer have a bookmark for it and seem unable to track it down with the help of Auntie Google. Can anyone point me in the right direction, please?

Thanks, Mike. That is indeed the site I had in mind - though it seems to have gone through a name change since I last visited it, which explains my difficulty.

Also, thanks to Phil. I already have that site bookmarked, but I shall check it out as well.
