Default DX7 Charger

Hi everyone,

I have misplaced my DX7 wall charger but do have an old Futaba charger that I'd like to use. I recognize that Spekrum/JR have a different charge polarity which is easy enough to change on the charger. That issue aside, the Futaba charger is rated at 9.6V & 70mA. I am assuming I cannot use this given that my fully charged DX7 is over 11V but I thought I'd ask the question anyway in case the 9.6V rating is nominal. If my suspicions are correct that I cannot use this charger, then what is the correct charger voltage I should look for?

Thanks!

P.S. the Futaba charger also says "charge NiCd batteries only". The voltage question aside, are NiCd and NiMh chargers interchangeable?

If you swap polarity it will work
