Wanted DE-852 or equivalent battery charger

Gurus -

Just curious as to where to find a back up battery charger for the above item without having to spend $100+. It would be nice if it came with a DC adatper. Any thoughts?

Thank you in advance for any help.

DVX'ers -

I thought I would pass this along for others in my spot. I posted the above thread because I had purchased a backup battery charger from ebatts.com that appeared to not work. I was frustrated that, for the second time, this had happened to me. The first time was with a different vendor. I was also upset that I was going to have to return it on my dime - again. I called ebatts and got a person on the phone immediately. He suggested that I remove the sticker covering the LCD screen before returning the charger. I was issued a RMA in case this did not work. Well, to my happiness (and embarrassment), the charger is working beautifully and I also have the option of charging the batteries from my car. Here is the link in case anyone has an interest.

After posting the link, I see there is a 2-3 week leadtime. I got mine in three days so there must be a run on them! Have a great day.
