In all fairness, the 1973 wasn't intended to be mass market. :P > >> If you have the 47k >> hack, i.e. a GTA02 charger, it even should fastcharge (after boot?). > > You have the GTA02 charger? good for you! > But I have a GTA01BV4, not a Freerunner... sorry, only poor people here! ;) ;) You can install Wurp's checkFastCharge script and charge with most commercially available USB chargers. I have the iGo DC charger (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000PJN2ZG) and I can fast charge my 1973 on the drives to and from work without explosions, smoke, fire or brimstone. > >> I'd be *very* careful with charging GTA01-bat with a simple >> Power+R-charger!
