lust2luv Posted September 15, 2005 Share Posted September 15, 2005 Second appeal for help. Bought the attached remote control Supra in the States last year. The rechargeable battery just plugs into a power outlet to recharge, however it's obviously designed for an American outlet. Can I just use a travel adaptor to plug it into a socket here, or is the higher voltage gonna fry it? If so, is there anywhere I can buy a UK proof replacement battery? Cheers guys!

psymon Posted September 15, 2005 Share Posted September 15, 2005 You should just be able to plug any NiCad battery in.... Try http://www.modelsport.co.uk I get most of my stuff from them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lust2luv Posted September 15, 2005 Author Share Posted September 15, 2005 Cheers for the link, this battery looks like a straight swap: battery but wouldn't I just need to change the charger, maybe for this one?: charger And would using the American charger with a travel plug be dangerous? Many thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suprz_rz Posted September 15, 2005 Share Posted September 15, 2005 The yank charger will run from 110V. We have 230V here, so unless it says universal Mains adaptor, or something like that, then it will fry! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lust2luv Posted September 15, 2005 Author Share Posted September 15, 2005 Cheers mate, I'll check the charger and buy a UK one if need be then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
