Abstract
A charger and charger housing have a water discharge structure. The charger housing includes an operating side, having at least one battery charging space, which is accessible from the operating side, and a first housing outer wall region on a first housing side. The first housing side forms, in a first use position of the charger housing, a bottom side thereof. A water discharge structure discharges water out of the charger housing, wherein the water discharge structure has at least one first water outlet opening in the first housing outer wall region. The charger includes a second housing outer wall region on a second housing side, the second housing side being non-parallel to the first housing side and forming, in a second use position of the charger housing, a bottom side thereof. The water discharge structure has at least one second water outlet opening in the second housing side. Use may be in chargers for electrical charging of battery packs for hand-guided motor-operated tools in gardening and forestry.
