Choosing New Wall Wart
I am still charging with the wall wart that came with my transmitter 10 years ago.
It is rated for a 4 cell 600mAh battery.
I am currently using 5 cell 2200mAh batteries.
I know I need a unit rated around 200 mAh, but what voltage?
I know it needs to be higher than 6 volts, but how much higher?
Thanks,

You could use a regulated power supply, such as this:

I would not trust the ratings of a non-RC specific wall wart to mean much. Without test equipment, it would be difficult to verify that a wall wart is doing what you want. The ones sold for RC use are designed for that purpose.
