If you look down at the Bloog forums on p 30-1 you can see my discussion. There's a nifty 7 slot charger for the 808ds! Rosewill RHB-330 7-port USB hub from Newegg. One of the Bloog peeps suggested it. They also mentioned that Bloog bats lose power very slowly so in lieu of a PCC you can just take many batteries in one case to an event. I'm posting it here cause I WISH I knew about it earlier....

I wonder what the amperage output of the wall charger is. if 500ma then it will only charge 3 no matter how many ports. 1a might handle 6 (same as an iphone charger). An ipad wall charger would do it for sure. I use something similar and discovered the type of usb cord matters as well. Some won't handle that much power.
Don't they have to be hooked up to a computer to work? Can you just plug them into a computerless wall?
Because I have a plugable brand one that has maybe 10 USB slots, but it's hooked up to the computer.

It looks like it comes with a wall adaptor and the Bloog rep that posted it says it has some power supply and he has it in his garage.
From their site:
Power Adapter Included
Equipped with a power supply, the Rosewill RHB-330 USB 2.0 hub guarantees the electric current stability and the effective operation of connected USB devices.

I had that problem with 7 port USB hubs, could never do more than 3 at a time. These days I use a power strip with 6 outlets individually switched, some cheap generic AC/USB adapters and some cheap generic KR808D-1 USB chargers from Heaven Gifts. Working for me so far.
10-Port Multi-Charger.....you'll need to get 10 510-901 Adapters. Of course I have never needed to charge more than a couple at a time...but that's just me. (*not sure how this works across the spectrum of differing KR batts, so you might need to call Cignot)

Joye 510 10 Hole AC Charger (Joye 510 charger). The Bloog rep mentioned he tried this and it takes forever to charge up more than a few 808d bats. My Rosewill is now on my floor awaiting 5 bats--I'll post how it does.
This is what I use, I charge 5 batts at a time, I have 3 mini and 2-78 mm batts, I also attach an ego bat. I just connect them all at bedtime... then they are all charged by the morning. they do stop charging once they are full.
Well, my Rosewill has been going fine for many days with 5 bats... charges them fast. I'm happy...
