Way back at the turn of the century I was heavily into the Pocket PC world. One of the holy grails of that tech accessories wise was finding a device charger that worked with regular AA batteries. PocketPC Techs met that challenge with the introduction of the Lil' Sync AA Battery Adapter. I'm happy to report that this little sweetheart works with our Note 3's. It's not the fastest way to charge this beast but its small size and ability to use off the shelf batteries is a god send in emergency situations. I haven't really completed testing yet but from 62% I went to 67% in about an hour with the battery temperature remaing at 70
