Tommy Styrvoky Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 (edited) I am planning to get my hands on a lipo battery from lego, and I went to their online shop, only to find that it is a retired product... yet the battery is available, I hope that the batteries are still in stock, but I am wondering about the chargers, I looked on www.legoeducation.com for a charger, and there are none available there too. Is there an alternative charger that can be utilized for this purpose. http://shop.lego.com/en-US/Transformer-9833 Edited February 19, 2015 by Tommy Styrvoky Quote
Saberwing40k Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 I don't think the charger you linked to is the right one. I think the charger is the 8887 one, which is not discontinued, but currently out of stock. If you have no other options, I'd recommend a nice DC transformer, which is really all that the Lego chargers are, with interchangeable tips. This one is an example:http://www.amazon.com/Velleman-PSSMV1USA-3-12Vdc-Switching-Supply/dp/B00068U44I/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1424310869&sr=8-1&keywords=universal+power+supply Quote

miguev Posted March 2, 2015 Posted March 2, 2015 8887 Power Functions Transformer 10VDC I got this one a few weeks ago for the EV3 rechargeable battery, and a friend got it for the same plus the LiPo battery. Quote
Tommy Styrvoky Posted March 3, 2015 Author Posted March 3, 2015 Disregard this topic, I got a lipo and recharger off of amazon. Quote
TheNextLegoDesinger Posted March 3, 2015 Posted March 3, 2015 isn't the charger the same as the nokia loaders Quote
