AC is AC, and DC is DC. It should work if voltage and amperage match. Andy

I saw a charger at Costco for laptops, dvd players, ipods, etc. I wonder if it would work for the bn, especially the MPower as it uses a battery with a higher amperage. I know radio shack also sells the igo in two flavors. I wonder if either of these would work. The one at costco was made by a company that manufactures a lot of computer equipment. Don't remember the name right now. I think it was Kensington. It was around 80 dollars or more and had a lot of tips.
