I've misplaced the power supply/charger for a "battery pinch". This battery pinch holds my battery and can send various voltages to different pieces of camera gear.
The battery pinch can also charge a battery that is connected to it, which is what I'm needing to do. If someone would like to explain how the pinch can under normal operation receive battery power and send to outputs, but also at other times can receive power from charger and send to battery instead, I would like to know. But that is just a side question and not important now.
The battery pinch does not show what input voltage it needs. I suspect it may be ~16.7 V that the original charger supplies. However, 16.75 V is the voltage that my (other brand) battery likes to be charged with.
I have various chargers lying around, but none at 16.75 V. Some are 12 V. The closest is my Macbook charger which says 16.5-18.5 V, but I don't really want to cut it up and splice it to plug into my battery pinch.
Is there a way to modify my other chargers somewhat easily (not requiring me to order additional parts) to get 16.75 V output? I know how to solder.
Links again if you missed them:

190 Ah Battery (likes being charged with input of 16.75 V. can batteries take different voltage inputs?)
