I just bought a Yaesu VX-7R and am looking for some cheap way to charge a spare 7.2 volt battery using a 12 volt source while it is not on the radio.
I only have a need for a few days a year and there is not time to charge the spare and the working batery on the radio during the off time. (and if there is I'm not likely to wake up to make the change.)
I don't have the radio yet. There is a "12 volt external source" cable available but all th manual says is that while on the wall wart it can't be used to transmit.
