Background and resolution:
My friend purchased two BC-9009 at a greatly discounted price. They were discounted because it was a brand new full kit, sans charging adapter. I guess it had been cannibalized to fix another customer's already purchased 9009. Anyways, he was looking for a suitable adapter and had a generic multi-range power adapter. I tested it and the voltage was way off, so I advised him not to use it until I could find a suitable replacement. In the mean time, he called up LaCrosse and explained that he had purchased these two chargers and that they did not come with any power adapters. They are sending him two adapters FoC.
