If you're asking about recharging batteries
like the BP511you'd be better off carrying a couple extra charged
batteries if backpacking unless you're going to be gone for a long
time. The two 6V lantern batteries, you'd need two since the 511s are
7.4V and you need more than that to charge the 511s, and the charger
would weigh a lot more and take up a lot more space than 2 or 3 511s.
An Energizer 6V lantern battery weighs 665grams and H L W is
15mm X 68.2mm X 68.2mm while a 511 weighs 77Grams and H L W is 20mm X
55mm X 38mm. Then you have to take the charging logic into consideration. When the lantern batteries are depleted you toss them while the 511s get recharged.

The big 6volt lantern batteries come to mind but maybe the old 9 volt cells would work better. Yeah I know there are car chargers, but what can you use to recharge when you away from both power and a car. Be real handy on a back packing trip or say when working some event where you might need to recharge one battery while using another. Anyone know of such a product??? Mark --
