Depends on the type of batteries your camera uses, but some months ago Rayovac came
out with new 15 minute re-chargeable NiMh batteries, 2000 Mamp, and charger. If the
charger doesn't come with the 12 Volt adapter cord, call their 800 number and they
send it free and quick. Charger is very small, soft rubber feet. I have an outlet in
the back of my Westy where I plug it in. Use the batteries in other devices as well.
Has worked well for me.
