For the life of me I cannot find my charger for the Standard Horizon VHF HX150.  https://www.standardhorizon.com/indexVS.cfm?cmd=DisplayProducts&ProdCatID=85&encProdID=3211805A90B55C7DE1A0CCA94A38DBB8&DivisionID=3&isArchived=1

Anyone happen to have one go missing or die on them and no longer need the charger?

Bump... anyone lose or break their HX150 and have a charger laying around?

Or... Someone want to buy a practically brand new HX150 without a charger?

Not sure which VHF Charger this is, but it's not the one that came with it.  Made it work anyway  :smt005

Well, I have two HX40's, so this will be a spare or loaner.  But it fully charged overnight, and works!

Nice! Hope that works out as a great loaner.
I'm opposite you and recently dropped my one of my icom at the launch in 5 fow. Found it 2 hours later but it was garbling & eventually died. Guess some of these radio are not completely waterproof, only up to a short period.

Yeah, they are only good usually to 1 meter for 30 minutes.  Even then when wet sometimes the mic or speaker wont work till you shake it clear of water.  I lost my first ICOM floating model M32 because I put a tiny little caribener on the tether and accidentally dropped it overboard.  That tiny bit of weight was enough to sink the floating model....
