So thank to some fellow board'ers, I have picked up a gp-90 and charger. Thanks Bean & Yokel!
Since this is pretty old and I can't find any details on the charger, I figured I would ask the question here. With the one light on the charger, what am I to expect when:
1) the battery is low and is just put on the charger
2) the battery is charged, and full
Thanks in advance.

wish i could help todd, i never used the eco charger, only the batteryminder one

I believe when the red light is on it is on fast charge. & When it goes out it is on trickle charge. I always just left it charging for an extra half hr. after the light turns off to get it close to 100% charge. Scenario 1: The light will stay on 'till it is close to 98% capacity. Scenario 2: when you plug it in the light will come on for a second or two then go out. Hope that helps.

that does help, thanks again. it looks like bean sent a full battery, and after some time, it really held it's charge.
i had to re-wire the charger, since it looked like your friendly mouse had made it's way with the cable. realy nice of you to send this to me, can't i get you back with something. Definitely let me remburse you for the shipping, ok?

Really, i'm pretty sure it was intact when i boxed it up. I'm probably just stupid, but are you saying there was actually a mouse in the box?

nah, it just looked that way, there was some exposed wire. really not a big deal, something that took all of a minute to re-wire and sodder.
no mouse, but that would have been a good surprise...
thanks again!
