Even simpler ... return it when he gets back ... in the meantime, operate by
hand ... isn't that what lone sailors do :-)

Dear Simple - he's cruising in Australia - see line 2 below - he won't
be back for many a year - and no Sears in Aust.


Simple ... if it's Sears, return it ... they're real good that way. Then
go
get the right tool for the job.

A friend bought a 19.2 v Sears cordless drill for use on his boat.
He's cruising now in Aust so no 110 VAC wall power. The charger won't
charge the 19.2 VDC battery on either his inverter or his Honda
generator. Sears doesn't have a 12VDC charger so now what.

Any ideas why and how to fix this ? Any possibility of a generic
charger that runs on 12 VDC? I don't know what the 110 VAC charger
puts out - maybe 25 V ??
