Your scanner has a built-in charging circuit that lets you charge nickel-metal hydride (Ni- MH) or nickel cadmium (Ni-CD) rechargeable batteries (not supplied) while they are in the scanner. To charge rechargeable batteries, you need to use a 9V AC adapter (RadioShack Cat. No. 273-1767) or 10V DC adapter (Cat. No. 273-1830) and a size C Adaptaplug™ adapter (neither supplied). Both are available at your local RadioShack store.
