Here's my new AC charger which is a TLP X15. Cost is around USD60.


After charging an empty dNaNo battery here is the result:


Final Capacity: 138mah
Final Voltage: 4.21V
Charging current: 0.3A
Charging time: 33 minutes

Good thing is I no longer have to use AA batteries and I can now "top up" the batteries as the stock charging station would not allow you to charge unless the battery has less than 40% capacity.

Kevin has done something to his charger. ^

And here are the pics of the modification of the Dnano charger:






Works really nicely and don't destroy the Dnano charger.

I use a simple regulated universal voltage adapter.
This one can get output voltage from 1.5 to 12V. with 1000mA at 12V (1400 at 6V).
It also contain different plugs.

And I can use both of the power sources. Cells or Adapter.
And so has Pierro. ^
