    Anyone know what a good gumstick charger is and where to find a cheap one ?
    For example I found this one, but it isn't available anymore :

    GP AUDIO PB12GS Charger

    This is the battery I like to charge:

    I found a few other chargers on ebay but they are quite expensive if you ask me.

    Any suggestions are welcome.

    Thanks in advance.

    I'd recommend getting a smart charger. Far more convenient and fast. I use the Sony BC-9HA. You can also solder a gumstick holder to a modern smart charger's terminals.

    Thanks for the info.
    I hope one of them comes available in the near future.

    Some time ago I emailed Vapex asking for a charger and they said they do not sell it nor they know who could sell it.
    I currently use the charger that came with the walkman's, luckily the supplied current is fine for modern NimH batteries.

    Yes I would try this. There’s many later walkmans available with a gumstick charger included. eBay has a few Panasonics
