cahrger power supply question

[pcar993]

For all the chargers that charge liPo batteries, what do you guys use for the power supply for the charger? Car battery? Seems knda inconvenient. Any other suggestions? Why cant they make a charger that will work off your hosue outlet?? Anyone show me a few options?

MRC superbrain series has an AC adaptor.

the vast majority of people use either a converted PC power supply or just purchase a ham
radio 13.8v power supply for around $50-100 depending on the power required.

Its for a triton Jr. charger. Im not sure what the requirements are for that. A converted PC power supply?? Like the one found in computers? What a trip, would you happen to have a link for an example?

Here is a site with some instructions for doing that. Pretty easy to do too.
