a/c and 12v (lighter) is a good comprimise. I had bad experience with duracell, even after they replaced the batteries/charger I found they were no good. Eneloop seems to have a good rep, but I'll need to order them off ebay. They should work with the nomad powerpack. That answers another question I had, the charger should have a constant charge.. not subject to clouds, shade, etc.. I have a booster pack; I could trickle charge it via nomad 7, and charge batteries off it. It should have same effect as lesnyder's setup using already owned items.


I still have some links to re-read but hey all seem to offer "independent" charging (AA/AAA at same time).. thats a plus. Do any of the chargers have an advantage charging both kinds (NiMh/lithium)?
