Can someone recommend the charger I would be best using for best results.

I am still not sure what the best recommended ratio of washing soda to water is. There are a couple of suggestions in this thread.

Hi Jack,
If you are using only a charger, why not use a battery, with the charger connected to it, may stop the charger cutting on and off.
