How did you do that? My wall has aussie plugs i need to buy an adapter :(

Using generic NiMh/NiCad charger ;)

does the mains power end detach from power supply or charger with a standard plug? if so i would buy an aussie cable, much tidier/safer

I assume it is safe to charge eneloops in any NiMH charger?

Would those be used ones? NiMH rechargeables or alkies? I have some of the Energizer rechargeables and they aren't too bad. They tend to go flat in a few weeks if not used though.

What was the charger you got by the way?

Used 2500MAH Rechargeable. I got the La Crosse charger. I tend to get 80% charge left after 4 or 5 weeks

Cramming FTW!!! LOL

On a different note, anyone use one of these flash brackets before...?

Flip Bracket (external link)

I assume the flip mechanism is spring loaded or something?
