Abstract:
An electrical appliance such as a battery charger includes a main body portion and a movable body portion. The apparatus includes a first cavity for receiving batteries. The movable body portion opens to expose a second cavity for receiving batteries. Each of the cavities includes battery receiving regions or bays. Each bay selectively receives a first battery having a relatively larger radial dimension or a plurality of batteries having a relatively smaller radial dimension. The bays can receive various battery sizes, such as AAA, AA, C, and D size batteries. One or more of the bays can receive a generally rectangular 9 volt battery.
