I just had this insane picture in my head of you cranking that charger like a madperson!

ETA: you don't put a PV in a charger? You put a battery in one. No wonder it blew up! I love mine, and it does have all those nice features plus the car adapter...

Right again...no wonder it blew up! I'll check out the car adapter from CCV. My CC is having an affair w/them. You're loaded with great advice.....THANKS AGAIN!!

Ooooh...a car adapter. That got a new grey cell to fire (thanks vsummer1). There are a bunch of BIG battery recharger units out there that are basically honking big LiOn batts with USB ports. You charge them up and they hold enough power to recharge your smaller batts several to many times. Do a google search here's some from Amazon just to give you the idea.
That said, with a bit of ingenuity, a car battery (or big gell cell), a car battery charger, a car USB charger adapter, and a bit of wire, you could make your own that would probably recharge your APV batts a lonnnng time

EDIT: sorry, the Amazon link got eaten...just google "USB battery backup"

Oh, but don't try to recharge anything off of the car batt/USB charger while the car battery is itself being charged...might fry it.

I saw the one on Amazon a few days back....been trying to get some feedback on it.
