Do you know if this charger is available in Canada. If you do not I would
suppose other members of the organisation in Canada would. Are you
privileged to their address.

I have lots of chargers, four in line, but I have not been able to get one
that does eight "AAs" at a time.

I thank you:
Keith

I use a powerport 12 which runs off either a lighter plug or a wall wart.

It can charge two 4 packs of AA or AAA plus four AAA thru C (maybe D) for
a
total of 12 batteries at a time.

do I need this? Heck YES. we use for our model rocket club the
following....

cobra FRS radios (5 of them with 3 AA bateries)
my film camera just recieved a high speed autowinder (4 AA) and I have two
flashes for it (2 AA + 2 AA)
portable radio scanner for tracking rocket locators and monitoring
aircraft
to avoid (4AA)
last year we built a RC lander/rover unit with 2 recievers (4 AA + 4 AA)
and
two transmitters (8 AA +8 AA)

and I know I am missing *something* but that still come to over 50 AA
bateries. admittedly I do not have 50 AA batteries, as we usually grab
batteries from one thing to run another, but I am trying to get that
eliminated, thank goodness for ebay.....

I wont even get into the setup we have for launch controllers, as that is
a
12 volt setup and we are building gear for that voltage standard as well
(camcorders, launch controllers, PA, FRS base radio, etc.)

We travel for 2 months each summer and often dry camp with no electrical
hookups. I need a good charger that will work on my trucks 12v cigarette
plug . So I can charge up the AA Nickel metal hydride batteries that I
use
in my Sony dsc-W! cybershot. Do you have any recommendations or models
to
avoid? Thanks.
