Re: backup battery charger

Yep. We built the circuit last year, and then chucked it out. You're much better off going to a hobby store and spending $25 on a high capacity 7.2 volt pack for RC cars and a nice charger actually comes with it. Once we did so, we never once had a backup battery issue, even when running with the same battery all day (with camera).
