I need help!
Hey there guys, I just recieved my new R/C Tank in the mail today. Man it sure looks great, just sitting there...with no power.
My problem being this tank is from america while I am in australia! Sure enough, using my internation powerplugconversion tool that doesn't actually convert AC power it just lets you plug it in to the wall I fried my Battery charger.
Here are its specs;
AC power input: 110v 60Hz (american standard)
DC output: 7.2v 400mah
and the Ni-cd battery is a 7.2v 1700mAh.
Now, I dont know much about batterys - but I have an australian style MODEM(as-in computer) power block with these specs;
AC power imput: 240v - 50Hz (australian standard)
DC output: 7.5v 1000mAh
What I am getting at, is can I safely charge the battery using the alternate australian power block? Or will it just destroy the battery? (I cant afford that)
Thankyou so much for any help in advance [&:]
