I want to use this charger to charge AAA, AA, and 9V batteries while backpacking. Will this charger work through DC power from a battery pack?

If you feed this charger with 12 VDC it will surely charge your batteries.Usually 12 VDC are provided with a wall transformer 110 / 220 VAC.

Sure as long as the battery pack is connected to a 110 volt inverter first,

There is an "Input DC 12 volt" plug-in that then connects to a wall outlet. There is also a USB port called "Output:5V."

I purchased this also to charge on my back country backpack trips. I use a 7 watt solar charger. Price and weight were the criteria for both.

Technically yes. There are adapters in the market that allow you to connect a battery pack. You simply put together the amount of batteries and amp hours that you want and you are good to go. These are DC powered so pay attention to positive and negative or you will burn it up. If you need more information email me through my website at www.morsepi.com and I will help you calculate the amount of power you need to accomplish your goals.

Yes it charges aa and aaa batteries very good and fast this is the best charger I have used by far

Yes, you can sling it on the outside of a backpack to charge as you go. Use some d-rings and it will hook on nice and easy (especially if you are using a MOLLE system pack). It is lightweight, probably about 1.5 pounds (with the battery pack) give or take a bit and well worth it.

Sorry, I can't see how that could possibly work as this device charges AA and AAA sized batteries from a standard 125VAC outlet/power source. I have no idea what would happen if you connected and 12VDC battery or solar panel to it, but I'd bet that it wouldn't be good. A better idea would be to find a small 12VDC to 125VAC inverter to connect your solar panel to, and plug this charger into the inverter. Yet another idea, see if Duracell, Energizer, or any aftermarket manufacturer actually make an automotive/12VDC charger. Good luck.

I do not own a DC adapter for it at all. I have been using solely battery power. Thanks

That's the idea behind any type of battery charger AC to DC. If I understand your question properly, you have the Tender plugged into a regular AC outlet and are charging a 12v DC ATV battery. It will work just fine.

Yes it will. I even bought a portable charger with a 12v output to use it while I'm out camping.

I didn't know so I tried it...the answer is yes. It took a charge from the wall charger as it charged my iPod(USB out). I assume it will do the same for the 9 and 12V DC out. Remember to press the power button to start the output charge.

Hi Michael, this product work with rechargeable AA batteries or regular AA. The charger that comes with it is not a dual voltage one. Hope this helps your question.

This charger needs mains power so could be used when traveling as long as you have a power source. No batteries involved with this one.

I see no reason for it no to. I am using one to charge a 36v golf cart. I suggest not running your battery pack below 70% ; and leave it pluged up anytime you are not using it. Hope this helps.

I left my pack in my cabin, so don't have it with me to check, but there are 3 options, maybe 6, 12, and 19v. I use it to charge my laptop and cell phone. I took it camping for two weeks while I had to be in my online class every day. Used my iphone as a hot spot. Was very cool!

Yes it charges c, d, and 9 v. 4 c or d at a time. Its a great cheap charger. I only use rechargeable batteries though. I have no experience charging regular batteries.

Yes it does work at full rated amps but only for very short periods. It constantly cycles out of the higher amperage because the unit cannot handle hard charges. It is OK if you are charging one battery over night or for more that 4-6 hours and need the surge to kick out a start, but it is a light duty charger. Do not expect it to charge a battery bank of 2 or more batteries.

Yes, I use the eneloop charger that handles aaa and aa, works fine, nice and compact.
