Different Charger for Red Bricks

[Ryan T. Gibb]

Hi my charger just pooped out on my and talking with Red they said there was nothing they could do for it I just need to buy a new charger. I've been reading that a lot of people are having problems with their chargers so I'm sketched out at getting another one. Does anyone know if these Varizoom Chargers will work with the Red Bricks?

I won't risk one single REDbrick (450$) on a 215$ difference...
If first battery go wrong you'll need 1000$ to have a new RED Brick and a new RED Charger

Yes The PAG charger will charge Red batteries no problem, I forget the model number but the website is www.paguk.com

Swit makes a charger for Red batteries and it charges 4 batteries at once rather than one at a time like on a red charger.

Cheers, Tim.

We like the Switronix Quad charger (note Swit and Switronix are two different companies - I have no experience with Swit).

The Switronix charges four Red batteries simultaneously (the original Red batteries and any Vmount like the Switronix Red Batteries, Sony Vmount etc.)

You could also buy a used Red charger we are selling for $395. It has been through the Red upgrade process and everything works fine.
