or search for "ac dc adapter"

This is similar to the one I use.

Make sure the "Plug" on the other end fits the emag charger base.

isnt the emag battery like a 1000mA or something? will that one completely charge the battery? or should i go in and ask for certain specs?

[Mechanic79]

You need one that will do 12V. As for the Mah I believe the stock battery is 600~650 Mah?

Someone please correct me if I'm wrong but won't a charger say 800 Mah still charge say a 1000 MAH battery pack but it just takes longer? (I'm sure there is a minimum mah charger that is needed)

I've used my radio shack 12V wall charger for years on three emag batteries with no trouble.

sweet, ill see if they have it in shop and they might be able to help answer if it can charge to 100mah or not

They are two completely different things.

The AC adapter provides a 12v source for your emag battery charger. This can be found at Radioshack.

An emag battery charger needs to be able to charge a 16.8v NiMh battery. This cannot be found at Radioshack.

emag battery charger, will the best bet to go thru agd and buy their charger and then a wall adapter (AC adapter im assuming is the technical term)?

If you need a charger, then the AGD one is what you need. Someone posted up an inexpensive alternative to the AGD emag charger, somewhere here on AO.

If you want to be able to charge in your house rather than in the car, then you need 12v ac adapter that plugs into the wall. There are a couple of types that will work. One supplies 12v to an automotive outlet that the emag charger cord plugs into. The other supplies 12 directly to a plug that fits into the emag charger.

As you can see the maH is only 300 but it still charges it fully voltage wise.
I've been using a 1.5V ~ 12V charger as you see in this picture. Charging three Emag batteries for over 4 years worth of playing. All the batteries still work today.

This has been my personal experience, and mine alone.

If I'm doing something wrong with this charger please someone tell me.....
I don't like leaving $100 worth of equipment in my car to charge, wherever I am.

Make sure it shoots well in "mechanical" first. Then use the electronics.
If it doesn't work in Mechanical it isn't going to work in E.

Pudgey,

Why don't you download the Emag manual off the AGD website?

[Pudgey51]
