    Is there such thing as a battery you can recharge with an AC adapter(like a notebook) and that battery has an AC port so you can plug a notebook battery charger into it?
    Thanks

    You could get one of those emergency power packs from a place like Home Depot. They offer portable AC power once you charge them, but they are kinda bulky.

    They are basically inverters.. so dat u could convert AC into DC, store it in the battery, convert back to AC when needed..

    just curious, where do you need them?
