Well, I looked for the article in my archives :-), and I found it!
The date is July 1986, Radio Electronics, page 67. On a related note, the
address of the batteries I posted earlier is _NOT_ the place I got the
batteries (although they do have them), but I remembered that I got
the batteries from mouser electronics. Their phone # is 1-817-483-4422 (in
texas) or 1-619-449-2222 (in california). The relevant part number is:
12 volt battery 1.8 amp/hour 547-PS-1219 $19.90 (one price).
They have 14 different ratings of amp/hours, for 6 and 12 volt batteries.
There is a chance that my old place of employment would sell some of these
chargers, or the boards to build them on. The company name is :
Weigh Systems Inc.
501-751-7225
And the person to talk to is probably: Brian Espenschied.
Good luck!
