Well the customer charger is identified by a 47 ohm resistor it has.
Go review the list for discussion about the charger issue. Michael Shiloh
has some
Good posts on it.
So, initially I'm shipping a fast charger. I leave OPEN the option to change
My mind on this AFTER the community is served. Based on feedback from the

This is a too restricted view imho, but I respect it. Anyway I simply think
that the custom chargers aren't so bad if you publish their specs.
Also the freerunner itself is a custom/non-standard device but people simply
is waiting for it!

Ok, I hope to be one of these so, but I really think that you shouldn't add
this limitation (especially if you hope to sell Freerunner also to people
actually addicted to this community).
