I just use an MFJ-1317. 13.8VDC at 2.89 amps, it's perfect for both simply charging and transmitting from, you just need to grab a PC power cable to connect to the other end. You can also use the MFJ-4103 (which is the same as the 1317 but also includes a Yaesu FT-817 adaptor which I believe is removable).
