The input voltage is 12v (13.8 actually) but the output is "smoothed" down to approx 6v but you would have to meter a charger to get the exact figure plus the input voltage needs to be pretty stable 1 amp constant. Stop trying to cut corners (I saw your other post ;)), ring WDP and buy a charger...it only starts getting expensive when you hook up a "proper" wall charger as well as the Angel charger unit.

Hey, over here, you can get a 1 amp wall adapter for the car charger for about $10.00 at Radio Shack. You should already have the car charger...so what's expensive?

Well, my point is that there are other alternatives...I'm sure the U.K. has the same car adaptor but made for your backwards :))) country 'cause you have car accessories also. And yes, it adds to his cost, but it still should cost less than buying one from WDP, who probably buys them from the same supplier that the U.K. store gets them from. You can check online electronics catalogs also, I've even found spare gun solenoids for about $50.00 cheaper, you just need to keep the old nipples.
Meanwhile, PBB seems to have a solution for ParaDox :)

We have in car chargers for those Drive Bys that just need that extra voltage under pressure. Car Accessories... dont see many people charging guns on the day in the middle of a field on normal wall sockets :D.

Yes WDP do sell the car charger on its own, I spoke with Frazer today about another matter and in passing mentioned your woes and he had seen it online ;) The car charger is $50 which is approx £33

Nulodpball....Paradox doesn't even have the car charger that comes with an Angel so thats what he is trying to get or make a replacement charging unit...the "correct" way is to use the Angel car charger and plug that into a "proper" wall unit...thats where the costs rise....WDP don't sell a wall charger unit, all countries have to source one in their locale, just it is up to you to buy a charger that does the job properly ;)

Ooops! My bad. I guess I assumed everyone had the car unit or knows someone who does...all it takes is 15 minutes or so and you're good to go for the day...if someone is kind enough list out the output on their charger and the polarity...of course I tend to view the idea of going cheap on an expensive gun is... :mad: This is why I like the idea of just grabbing a 9v from the store...
