Visar Gang Charger

[3-SAM-12]

Hello Board,

Do the Visar radios fit in the HT/MTSX gang charger? Model # NTN1177C, if not what model would I need

Nope, and I never saw a hang charger for them. Not sure they made one, correct me if I am wrong.

The dual charger was enough for most people.

Well I was looking around "The Bay" and this seller is selling a set, here is his photo, I think they are too fat for the Ht1000 chargers, but I can not find a model # for a gang charger for them.

If they made it, I never saw one. Maybe he has put them in a HT600 Charger? I can't believe I never saw one if they made it. I worked closely with another agency that for sometime had a fleet of Visars.....Not one Gang charger!!!

Hi fellows, yes Moto made a visar 6-gang charger, we use it daily for our visar's. It looks like the picture above. In Europe the model no. is NTN7622, but sorry i don't know the model no. for other countries (they might differ). I just tried if a slim NiMh visar battery without radio fits into a Jedi gang-charger NTN1177"A"-version or "C"-version. It doesn't slide in easy because there are about 1- 2 mm of plastic profile at both sides of the pockets to hold the Jedi batteries. The contacts are at the same place, many parts inside, the powersupply and the outer cover of both gang-chargers are the same. With some more pressure i can crush the visar-battery in the pocket and the red LED indicates that the charging is in progess. So believe it could be possible to use the Jedi-charger. If you have a jedi charger over you can cut away a litle of the plastic and take something to press the visar battery against the contacts of the charger. Other way you purchase the part where
the 6 batteries come in and mount it in your jedi charger. I have attached a picture which shows the different form of both charging pockets. This would be a real homebrewn construction - hihi. --- > And you do it on your own risk!!!!!
