What type?
I have many chargers,,, for a lot of different devices.
Seems they just appear sometimes.
Let me know what the plug looks like and the output voltage and I will look.
PM me if possible

Found this one on eBay recently for $13: Minelab 110V NiCAD Battery Charger for Minelab Excalibur - PN: 3011-0239
I have the Excalibur II detector and we moved and I have misplace the charger. Dose anyone know where I can get a new one at. I have checked Ebay and Kellyco and have not been able to find one. Going on vacation in 2 weeks and need one. Thanks Matt

Go to wallyworld and buy a Battery Tender Jr. Much better charger and has indicator lights to tell you whats going on as well. Cheaper too iirc.

I would not recommend using a charger made for lead acid batteries on nicd or nimh type batteries.

Any reason in particular? Smart chargers now days sense what they are charging and charge accordingly. I've been using the BT for over 2 years on my 2 Excal batteries with no problems but if I am doing it wrong, I'm always open to learning something.

My dislike of the factory charger stems from its lack of meters/lights (have to use a voltmeter to ascertain charge level) and it seems to get very hot while charging.
