He didn't mention how fast he wanted to charge the batteries. Many older
camcorder chargers were 12 volt and have universal inputs. Would be easy to
modify and most thrift stores have them.

Better find a charger that works on both because on 50 cps you need more
iron in conventional charger but a switcher will probably be OK since the
first thing it'll do is conver the ac to dc.

Hi folks

I plan to use two Yuasa NPO.8-12 12v 0.8Ah gelcells for portable radio
amateur rig..

I will use them in France where power is 50 Hz. I see that chargers
available here in Canada always specify 60 Hz.

So, do I have to expect some problems?

Thanks

Pierre
