you can buy a wall charger from radioshack. I'm just not sure what the part number is. You could probably find it with a search.

You could make one, but it would probably cost you more to make a good one than buying one from AGD. There's a PCB inside with a NiMH controller, large transistor and PWM controller plus all the discrete components. It's not a simple regulator circuit like used in the 12v warp mod.

actually, you could get one of the 18V 120 mAh chargers from rat shack and put some resistors inline till yoiur putting ~65 mA into the battery. that way, you get an emergency shutoff (at 18 hours) on a charger that will charge overnight. leaving it on will do no damage. :)

go buy a fricking AGD charger...

You can charge with a computer powersupply
Use Yellow(+12V) and a Black(-V)
If it's the newer style ATX, it needs to be in a computer to do it
If it's the older style AT, just plug it in and turn it on.

I'm probably one of the first people to do this, but it works really well. Almost the exact same voltage as a car.
Emergency shutoff works.
