Alternating Current Charging Unit

This is a bit of kit, similar to the DCCU, that allows you to charge the standard Clansman manpack radio battery from a mains power source. It has little lights to tell you when the battery is charging and when it is charged. Used mainly in training establishments, guardrooms and by the Sigs Troop/Platoon to get the batteries up to scratch when they get back off exercise.
