Hi Bill.

Yes, without a charge my old Sega 9V 1A reads 18.4 volts; just like 
all chargeless recharger it's way above expected.
While plugged in the PRO43 (turned off) CHG hole it reads 13.8 Volts!
While plugged in the PRO43 (listening to 162.5500) CHG hole it 
reads 13.2 Volts...  way too high.

Thanks for the tip.

I dug and the only other 9V charger I have is a 9V 100ma, I'll 
change the DC plug for a 3.5mm and check if it's closer to 
11V - 12V while charging.  At least with a lousy 100ma it won't 
hurt to let it charge 24 hours a day if I compare it to the 9V 1000ma...
