520c Battery Charger

Does anybody know of a cheap source for a battery charger for this series. I have half a dozen batteries that I cannot reach with the book's charge circuit via EMMPathy 2.1, but that I might be able to kick-start with a higher powered charger. I have several 5300/190 chargers and no batteries,

I have several 540c laptops and a charger for them, I don't use the laptops themselves much anymore, just to make disks for my IIgs. anyways I don't even run batteries in one of them! and I've only actually got one that still works, so I'll sell you my charger for $5 plus actual shipping.

AFAIK it's not possible to use more than one Quicktime camera with any Macintosh, at least not under a classic Mac OS as QT can't deal with more than one video source at once. Dan K . http://macdan.n3.net/ carracho://dankephoto.dhs.org:9700
