Abstract

A battery-charger with adjustable contacts which are specifically arranged according to specific positions of power contacts of different types of batteries. The battery-charger includes a base body on which a battery to be charged is placed, a contact-adjusting member disposed on the base body and a set of conductive contacts fitted in the contact-adjusting member in accordance with the positions of power contacts of the battery. After a set of contacts are specifically fitted in the contact-adjusting member, the contact-adjusting member is fitted on the base body. Thereafter, the battery to be charged is fixedly located on the base body and adjacent to the contact-adjusting member. At this time, the specifically arranged contacts contact with the power contacts of the battery and conduct electricity to the battery.
