I don't think you'd get 200mA (actually more like 240-250mA) if you
installed a 12V battery internally, as Frank suggested. I think the
only solution if anyone tried that would be to add a separate
charging socket.

The charge time can be set from 6 hours to ten hours. The current

at c200 mAh, so 1600 NiMH cells take two ten hour charges.
Email me if you need further assistance. (the green wire mod is
easypeasy by
the way).

Dave:
That is exactly what I needed. Did not know there was some sort of
removable tray for the AA batteries.
On another note, I assume that when unit is powered from a ext 12v
source that there is some sort of control over the charging of the
internal battery. Do you know if the charge level of the internal
batt is adjustable via software? Thinking of installing a 12v
internal batt supply if the charge level can be adjusted up from
9.6 v
Thanks
