RE: Eclair ACL On board battery?

[Joshua Tunick <joshuatunick@hotmail.com>]

I've got a 110/220 switchable "Eclair" power module with a male 4-pin 
XLR connector that came with my ACL II - is there any reason why this 
couldn't be used as a charger for a battery pack like the one you 
describe?  Or are good chargers cheap enough to not bother?

Thanks,

Joshua
