Default battery charger seems to have died

I'm wondering if someone popped it by cycling the AC dock switch on
and off... I'd imagine there would be some sort of surge. I know they
were doing maintenance on the dock... AC power cords were sitting
around not connected to anything, and it wasn't like that when I was
there last.


I once killed a new xantrex charger by plugging into an unlabeled 220
Volt socket. (It was a home brew setup for a hoist that looked just
like 110V dock power!)

The support guy told me there was an undocumented tiny fuse on an
internal board, and sure enough, it had popped.
