DC power supply suggestion?

Post by rhoonah »

So I just purchased my first DC only NiCD and NiMH peak charger but now I need to get a power supply for it. Can anyone suggest a good one? I really don't want to spend a lot of $$$ on it because my wife already has her sniper rifle sighted in my my wallet in my back pocket :shock:

Anyway, I'd prefer a supply that puts out enough amps where I could run more than 1 charger off of it. So any suggestions would be much appreciated!

radio shack sells 2 very good ones, they are a little pricey but they work great. they are switch-mode so their small and lightweight. i have seen a lot of local racers run 2 or more chargers off them. the 25 amp version is the same one that competition electronics sells just re-labeled.

Thanks for the suggestions wyldbill... I appreciate it. Maybe I'll take a ride to Radio Shack tomorrow and see what they have in stock.
