Anyone out there with a PoolBuster - can you please tell me what your charger output voltage and amperage is. Thanks!
Background info - I have a PB Max with the "old style" 1 hour charger. This charger is outputs 8.4V, 500mA for one hour on a timer, then switches to a trickle charge of 8.4V, 125mA. After one season, my original battery wouldn't charge. After buying a replacement that didn't work well either and getting help from the manufacturer, I would up with 2 "new" battery/motor packs and a new "trickle" charger. However, the trickle charger doesn't work and I'm not 100% certain it is the correct charger for the PB. It is a 14.4V output, 100mA charger. I am worried that this high a voltage, even at trickle, is killing the batteries. I could just buy a new charger, but the price is pretty ridiculous for a wall wart. If I can get the info from other PB users, at least I can tell if I have the right charger or not.
Thanks for any help!
