Land Surveyor

A SECOND CHANCE MAYBE .

HOT TIP : I have an old Nikon Total Station and the old battery charger broke down. Economical service in North America was none existent. AliExpress saved the day at a reasonable price.

    I sure do appreciate you Bill Brooks, you got me investigating and researching and I realize that I also might need the universal converter adapter inverter the kind The Travelers use when their travel overseas with their computers laptops hairdryers and cell phones ETC. Thanks again Bill bye for now

    I'll charge it for 15 minute increments when I get it . Sort of ease her in slow just to see how she takes the charge up.

      Boys did I ever boil over today. I get this email from AliExpress it says my order has been terminated, closed kaput. There I was laying in bed 4 o'clock in the morning checking my bank balance back to February 13th yep they certainly took out $56 and change. Well then I got on the email and I told AliExpress they better deliver that parcel ASAP or I was going to delivar some natural consequences. At 10 o'clock there was a thump on the doorstep. I went out and looked and there was the little parcel. I don't know if a drone dropped it off or what. But anyway I apologize for being so rough

      Thanks Billy
    • I am talking about what comes out of your wall connectors, your charger is like a transformer.

      It changes the 120 volts AC to 10 volts DC at 2 amps,your new should do the same or whats in the correct range. wish you luck.

  • Land Surveyor
    Well my specifications read output 10 volts 2 amps so we will see.
  • Hi Ritchie,

    The design of the connectors are different,but electric voltage types are also different,so make sure all of this is correct including the amps before you use it.The U.S. uses 110 to 125 on one power leg single phase, so you have 240 volts between them ,two hot wire and a ground. Europe uses twice this much theirs at 220 volts on single phase with one leg. European appliances are 220 volts to 440.As ours or 120 to 240.

    The guys back at the AliExpress shop realize that plugins in Europe are not as the same as plugins in North America. They're sending a special adapter and I can plug into the European to fit into the North American wall outlet.
