Hi,
Sorry but .....
This is all I could find...
from the web, on this site..here..

I use a Speedex SP7000 charger for my Sanyo 2400 8-cell packs. This I normally power from an old 12v Motor Car battery - which is now failing.

Is there any good reason why I shouldn't use the 240v > 12v Car Battery Charger to power the Sp7000? I realise that the 12v output is probably not smoothed that well - but does that matter?

Could I just smooth it with an electrolytic capacitor across the output?

If not, anyone know of a cheap versatile DC power-supply that would suit? It's a pain having to keep a battery charged in order to run a battery charger!


I think that it might be best just to buy a 'New one' or at least one from a 'Known' manufacturer....This company look like they are 'History'.......
BUT..if you want to give it a try or if money is tight.....then.....
Can you take any better and more detailed photos of the unit ??.....
