A pair of right and left fixing holes and a pair of strap attachment holes are provided on a rear surface of a main body housing at a position which does not protrude from a side area S in a planar view. A bottom edge portion of an upper recessed portion is provided above the fixing hole to cover each of the right and left fixing holes, the strap attachment holes are provided to be coaxial with the bottom edge portion, and it is ensured that durability and compactness of the charger are obtained.

Charger

In one aspect according to the present teachings, a battery charger may include a body housing and a power supply connector disposed at a lateral side of the body housing. The power supply connector can supply a DC power to an external device.

Battery chargers

A charging apparatus for a secondary battery comprises: a power supply circuit connected to a primary windingof a transformer T; a main windingand a sub windingconnected to a secondary side of the transformer T; a charging circuitconnected to the main winding, the charging circuitsupplying power to a battery packto be charged; and a control circuitconnected to the sub winding, the control circuitcontrolling the charging circuit, wherein the charging circuitcomprises a LEDindicating a standby state or a charge completion state, the LEDbeing lighted at light-load time of the charging circuitbased on a command of the control circuit

Charging apparatus for secondary battery

A charger of the present invention includes a plurality of battery connection parts to which battery packs can be connected to charge, with each battery connection part having an indicator. The indicators can be configured such that when charging is expected to be completed more quickly in a first battery connection part compared to a second battery connection part, the indicator of the first battery connection part is displayed differently from the indicator of the second battery connection part.
