if i am right in my thinking, you run an AC adapter through the charger, pretty much making it a wall charger, but you still keep the ability to tell when the battery is fully charged, or at least thats what i was gonna do with mine.

The way I did my charger mod is the ez way . I just use a ac to dc adapter that is 12 volts 500mA (1.5 volts x8 is 12 volts)and just alligator clip it to positive and neg on the charger and done . can still use batteries and no need for on off switch . Great job doing the extra work for the switch and plug . |
