as long as the plug polarity is correct no damage,
however 6v might not be enough volts to make it work/charge as well.
try it.

Hi All: I have an old BC200XLT. Had it for about 12 years. I have
replaced the batteries a few times over the years, some from Uniden
and others from adapting Radio Shack NiCads.
I seem to have misplaced my car charger. I do have a Radioshack
variable voltgage that fits but the highest voltage is 6 V.
If I try charging with that, will it damage the batteries?
I do have the AC charger so I can always charge indoors. Just
wondering about the car charger.
By the way, this is a great scanner. It still picks up occasional cell
phones, but I thought that due to digital and encryption that would no
longer be possible.
