Does anyone know where to buy an External Charger for a SBR-32MH battery?

I want to take my new rig camping, but need to bring a few extra batteries.

does your new rig have an external power source input jack? if so what voltage is that,,finding a wallwart with the acceptable output is not hard to do, or then with some ingenuity, figure out how charge the battery using a home made hookup,to charge it, use that via solar, or a hand crank flashlight generator, or buck it from another battery, sort of depends on what kind of camping you do, roughing it or glam-camping,,, and what your radio usage consists of, listening or ratchet-jawwing.

I believe they can only be charged through the radio, Yaesu is picky about aftermarket chargers and their batteries. If you have a desk stand charger you could find a appropriate jack and wire it up yourself. Amazon and eBay both have chargers for the radio.

I created a jumper from the battery with a MX1.25 female 5p connector and hooked it up to the free red and black output wires on my Tenergy TB6B charger/discharger and it seemed to work well.
THEN
I found a charger: WC-72 - Wall Charger for Yaesu & Vertex batteries at Batteries America $24.95

Thanks for the advice - I did that: I created a jumper from the battery with a MX1.25 female 5p connector and hooked it up to the free red and black output wires on my Tenergy TB6B charger/discharger
