       Ljl as solidstate battery charger

       Hi all. I am playing around with charging batteries while still
       getting plenty of useful light. Simple , just take a 400X diode
       and put that on the HV out of the coil to battery to be charged
       positive. Then connect the negative of the battery to be charged
       to the other side of the hv. In other words put the battery in
       parallel with the lights. Just use one diode with the arrow
       facing the battery to be charged. It lowers the amount of light
       produced but also lowers the amp draw in my case anyway. The
       squeal does get louder but I cannot get the system to get hotter
       or see any adverse effects other than decreased light output and
       a little more noise.
       Just thought I would share. I didn't see any posts talking about
       charging from this device.
       Thanks,
       al
