Anyone have any dead 18650 cradle chargers they would send me for postage? I've seen reports of dead DSDs. Wonder what people do with them....

I have a project in mind.

Thanks,
-Joel

PSU's or the cradles? The cradles work fine with Nokia chargers. If it's the PSU's, I can probably find a couple - the cradles I use (With Nokia chargers)

The PSUs are very sensitive and blow easily - I have already thrown away a couple. The cradles are more robust and like dulridge mentioned, work great with Nokia adapters (not the newest models with the smaller pin). Bonus is, the charging rate also goes up to around 750mA.

Which chargers? Do you have a part #? :)

I use Nokia ACP-12X. It's rated at 5.7v / 800mA.

You can also use the common USB mobile chargers (for eg DX sku 7101 or sku 2381 rated at 1000mA) with the appropriate cable and connector.
