    The 2x00 doesn't charge batteries in the battery tray, only the
rechargable battery pack. There is a modification that can be made to the
battery tray to charge NiMH cells.
    Also, if you do have a rechargable battery pack it will take quite a bit
longer to charge using the 7W adapter rather than the 9W adapter.
