Looking for a charger unit for AA & AAA batteries, but it has to be a 12v powered one, not the normal 240v. Does anyone have any recommendations
please?

Have a look on www.7dayshop.com I have one (808LCD) which can be powered by 240v,12v or USB lead.It is good value for the money.All 7day prices include postage.Their rechargeable batteries are excellent.I also use them for print cartridges.

I got mine from Jessops for about £15. It has an adaptor that you plug into the mains ans supplies 12 volts BUT it also comes with a car adaptor for using from a lighter socket.

I've used this evilbay shop for several years. Good prices and service. Have a look at the Uniross fast chargers which mostly come with 12v charging options. No connection etc..

Look for a charger that charges each battery separately. Some will only charge 2 or 4 batteries together trying to fill them with the same amount of AHrs.
The other option is a hobby charger. These will charge almost any battery (lithium, lead acid etc) over a wide range of sizes and voltages. Very versatile and they will give you detailed information about voltage AHrs in etc. They all run off 12v, but you have to use or make a battery holder so it may not be what you are looking for.
This is an example of a good one, but you can get much cheaper Chinese copies if you don’t want to spend much.
