    During the production of the 680x models the company rebranded as Berec, was bought by Hanson Trust and reverted to Ever Ready, hence some examples have Berec on the the paper serial number label instead of Ever Ready. The front logo was Ever Ready even when the UK batteries retailed as Berec. The Skyleader 6800, Skyranger 6802 and Skytime 6801 are the last Ever Ready models. Made in Malaysia.
