Ace Automatic Add A Trickle
Well, some of my wall chargers are 20 years old. Thats because they have Ace Add A trickles added to them and I like the ability to leave my radios on trickle.
So I decide 20 years old is getting too old. But Ace doesn't make the manual Add a Trickle anymore, just the new automatic version. But when wired in line with Futaba wall chargers, the LED's on the Futaba unit won't light properly and the Ace unit won't switch to trickle on its own.
Has anyone else been able to use the Ace unit with Futaba chargers ? Do I just have a defective unit or are they incompatible with Futaba ?
