How can i charge a video camera battery if i dont have a charger?

Question

i cant find the charger that you put the battery in. are there any alternative ways to charge the battery?

ps. it is an american video camera i live in Australia.

Answer 1

Bring your camcorder/battery to an electronics shop (Sydney?). Usually chargers are common and on auto-voltage.

Answer 2

just buy a cheap multi-voltage charger, one of the kind  that comes with various adapters, cut one of the adapters out and stick the two wires on the battery's contacts with sello-tape. as long as you select the right voltage it should work fine.
