Q:i have a verizon Samsung SCH-u740. i accidently left my cell phone charger at my friends house and took her boyfriends lg charger, thinking that it was mine, by mistake. i am in desperate need of battery and i wont be able to get it until tomorrow evening. is there any alternatives of charging it without the charger itself?

how about hooking it up to a car cell phone charger?

Q:I have a Compaq Presario r3000 laptop and my battery charger recently won't charge my battery. I have tried buying a new battery but the problem still presists. Do i need to buy a new charger instead?

Obviously the battery is dead!?

Q:I have the Chargers at Oakland and the Titans against Minnesota. Which defense should I got with?

Chargers because Oakland have no healthy offensive threats and Minnesota have stinky Pete riding high.

Q:I know that the Chargers had a GREAT defensive game last night, but where has that been all year??? Also, the O didn't even show up other than Darren Sproles on kick offs and punts!!! That was the worst offensive preformance by them in seasons! 6 turnovers and only 9 points off of them. What are the Chargers going to do if they play like this the rest of the season? Good or bad thing? Will they make it through the playoffs? I'm a HUGE fan, but the offensive is too shakey for the GREAT D Your Thoughts? Would you have sat the Chargers D against the Colts compared to the Panthers D vs ATL.?

I would have honestly sat the Chargers D and started the Panthers D. I thought Peyton and the running game was going to go ape **** against this defense but I was obviously wrong. I am sorry to say but they need to get Rivers out of there. He can't get the ball to his receivers and the team can't put it on LT's shoulders much longer. They have a great receiving corps in Gates-Jackson-Chambers and LT coming out of the back field there is no excuse for the offense to be playing like it is; BUT IT ALL STARTS AT THE QB POSITION. In Rivers last three games he has thrown 3TDs-3INTs, and for the season he is 10TDs-10INTs and is averaging 193passyds/game. That is not not not good. If the Super Chargers want to make it to the playoffs this year Rivers needs to step his game up tenfold; lucky enough for you the Chargers participate in the AFC Horrible division so they should make it to the playoffs, but just to be creamed by the Patriots-Colts. Hope things turn around for you and good luck to the Chargers.

Q:I just bought a Kodak Z981 and they gave me a wall charger kit with it. I inserted the batteries correctly and plugged it in with an apparatus for european sockets (and the apparatus does work) but the light on the charger just doesn't come on. What might be wrong with it?

Have you verified that the charger works with European power? 50Hz, 220V isn't the same as US 60Hz, 110V. Most modern transformers do conform to most power situations, but not all. If the light isn't coming on, one of 4 things can be wrong: 1) the wall socket is dead, 2) the adapter isn't working, 3) the charger doesn't do European power, 4) the charger isn't working.

Q:Can you leave rechargeable batteries on charger 24/7 or is it bad to batteries or does the charger automatically quit charging the battery when it is fully charged?

IT IS NOT OK TO LEAVE A BATTERY ON THE CHARGER 24/7 UNLESS.the charger is a SMART charger. That means it has a microprocessor inside the charger to cut back the charge rate as the battery reaches maximum charge. IT IS NOT A FUNCTION OF THE BATTERY, it is a function of the charger. If the charger is not a smart charger, the charger will attempt to keep charging. This will eventually dry out the electrolyte inside the cell. If you dry out the battery, it will not hold a charge, and will need to be replaced.

Q:after all, the Chargers are the most talented team in the NFL, bar none.

I like the way you think also !! Im a huge Chargers fan but i wouldnt go so far as 52 -6 LOL Can't wait for the 20th !!! Thats gonna b one of the best games yet. !

Q:I was thinking of getting some new 2600mA rechargeable batteries (any brand recommendations?) and I currently own a charger that came with 1500aM batteries. Will those batteries work with that charger or do I need to get a new charger as well?

Yes, it'll be fine. Note, the battery is actually 2600 mAh (milliamp-hours). The charger does not have a mA rating per se. It just happened to be one that was packaged with 1500 mAh batteries. The actual current supplied by the charger is likely down in the few-hundred-mA range, unless it's a fast charger. It will likely take longer to charge the larger capacity batteries, but this isn't something you have to worry about. The charger's circuitry measures the charge in the battery and stops charging automatically. It does not depend on a specific time of charging or anything like that. Just put the batteries in the charger and wait until the LED goes out, or turns green, or whatever it does on that charger.

Q:I know the charger is better in performance but i'm sure that the mini is fun to drive and more fuel effecieny

Definitely the Dodge Charger!! The mini is cool but the Charger hands down!!

Q:How important is it to use the right ampere-hour charger for the ampere-hour of the battery?What is the min. and max ampere-hour charger you would use for a 600 ampere-hour battery and a 840 ampere-hour battery?

Well you will need a 10 Amp or 14 Amp charger for your two batteries. I would make sure the transformer in the charger can handle at least 20 Amps and then it will never fail. Well maybe if the battery is almost flat. The higher the current that you need to charge the battery the higher the rated current of your transformer. If you draw more Amps than the transformer is rated for it will overhead and the transformer will fail. I make sure that there is always plenty extra power available and then it lasts for years.
