Does anyone have information on a battery recharger that accepts various international power sources? Minimally I need U.S and U.K.; ideally it would have other types of wall-current and even 12v auto input. Related question: any one know of a mail-order or catalog firm that deals with "international travel needs" and/or "hi tech toys suited for the traveller"? Thanks... post or email to rwood@pa.dec.com (rwood@dec.com should work too) -- --------------------------------------------------------------------- Richard Wood Corporate Worksystems Team Digital Equipment Corp. ========================================================================

I have a solar powered charger for upto four AA cells. Cost in the UK was 10 pounds sterling. The company sell a C cell charger as well. This came from a `yuppie mail order catalogue' - `The International Buyers Guide' - I don't have the address with me, but it is in the UK. I can supply the address if requested. Please mail me and I'll post/or reply. The AA solar charger seems OK. I use it to charge 3 spare nicads for my electric shaver so they get about a week or two in the sun. I'm also looking for a 12V charger however as certainly under UK winter sunshine the solar charger does not charge very rapidly. -- Regards, pd@x.co.uk IXI Limited Paul Davey pd@ixi.uucp 62-74 Burleigh St. ...!uunet!ixi!pd Cambridge U.K. "These are interesting times" +44 223 462 131 CB1 1OJ
