Is a charger and a base the same thing for a cordless phone?

Question

I have a phone but I lost the base.. I'm looking for one on the internet and I found something that says charger and if you click on it it says base. Would that be what I'm looking for because I don't want to spend $20 and it not be what I'm looking for. It didn't have a picture so I don't know if it's what I'm looking for or not. HELP ME PLEASE!!!!

Answer 2

It may or may not be.  You haven't given me enough information.  

With some cordless phones the charger and base are the same thing.  While other cordless phones - ones that allow you to have multiple handsets - the base and charger are two very different things.  With multiple handset phones, the base charges the phone and also connects to the phone line.  The charger only charges up the phone.

So it depends on what type of cordless phone you have.

Answer 3

yes the base charges the phone when not in use
