CONRAD W : can the battery be charged in the charger? in my nikon s9300, battery has to be in the camera to be charged.TOM R : yes the battery can be charged in the charger. However the OEM battery that comes with your camera from Nikon will not fit in the charger only the battery that you purchase. Hope that helps!!PAUL L : The battery is charged in the charger outside of the camera.ACCOUNTS P : Yes, battery goes into this charger separate from camera. And this set comes with both AC and car adapterDENNIS M : hmm... yes, the battery can be charged in the charger as that is the whole purpose of the charger. We have a Nikon 6100 and we charge one battery in this charger while the other is in use inside the cameral. This device & battery have exceeded our expectations, though admittedly, we are not a heavy user. Also have to admit that we have only used the plug into the receptacle option on the charger, have not found need to use the car charger portion.GREGORY F : Yes - If your camera has a Nikon ENEL-12 battery, or its equivalent, the battery can be charged in the PT-12 AC/DC 4.2 charger (i.e. - outside of the camera). Also, I have tested the 120 /220 volt operation of this charger in the United States, Europe and Central America. Only outlet adapters are needed - the unit adjusts automatically to either 120/220 operation. I hope that this helps. Best Regards!
Shopper : european battery charger plug. does it it include usa 110-120?RICHARD M : Yes, that is the reason I bought it, since I doubt I will ever get to Europe. Car charger part is also important. Mainly, did not want to have to charge the battery in the camera, since I want to use the camera with the spare battery while the other one is charging.JANEEN R : The package I received includes a plug which plugs into the USA voltage (the back of mine says 110V - 240 V), plus an adapter which plugs into a car cigarette lighter.ACCOUNTS P : YesGREGORY F : Hello: The charger is 100V - 240V and50Hz - 60Hz compatible - read the language on the cover of the charger to verify this.. It does not include an adapter plug to accommodate U.S.outlets. Such adapters are inexpensive and are available through your local retailer in Europe. I know the information above is accurate as my son lifes in England and both he and I have Nixkon cameras and chargers. Best Regards! Freddie - Cleveland, OH
First Name L : I know it includes a European adapter, but can it plug into a US electrical system?ACCOUNTS P : Yes, it has a U.S. (110V) plug that flips out on the back, as well as a car (DC) adapter.EDWARD G : Yes, it has built in prongs for US outlets.GREGORY F : Yes, I have used the charger in both the U.S. and the E.U. The charger is compatible with 120v / 220v and 60hz / 50hz.RICHARD L : Works well for me,I have had no problems yet.MICHAEL B : The PT-12 has a built in plug for US electrical that swivels into the charger when not in use. It has an adapter for European systems plus the DC cord and plug. The charger works as advertised on both US AC and DC. I have not had occasion to use the adapter.PAUL L : YesSANDRA K : Yes. I live in California and I use it all the time.ANDERS S : Yes the lower back has a fold out US plug built into the charger. Flips out to charge in an outlet, folds down for smaller storage space. The digital charger is designed for Input: AC 100V-240V. So the adapter fits over the regular plug for use in Europe.

Rated 4 out of 5

The old one gave up the ghost (intermittant battery contacts)

so I bot a new one. Versatile and useful little device. I have spare batteries and rotate them from cam to charger and back to the cam. I always have at least 2 fresh batteries on hand for those times I am away from power sources. It is also more convenient to charge the batteries outside the cam. That way the cam is never out of service.

My new Adorama PT-12 Battery Charger may be better than the original that came from Nikon

My new Adorama PT-12 Battery Charger may be better than the original that came from Nikon. The shopping experience was great, ordering was easy and delivery was fast. I've equally satisfied with all of my purchases from Adorama and see no need to shop anywhere else!

They cheapened it from the older one I have

My older charger quit so I bot another one. Much more convenient than charging the batteries in cam, and I have 3 batts so I can just change them out on a trip, not to mention that the charger can work world wide and from 12 volts in the vehicle, too if needed. Very useful design. The new one is, well, cheap compared to the original one (about 4 years old now) It uses an adapter plate for the batteries, so is more universal for them, but the swing out plug is way cheap. Note that this charger is $ whereas the original was $ I would rather pay the original price and have something more robust like the original. Well, time will tell.

Gets the job done just fine

This clever little device replaces the charger that I got with my Nikon D7000, and which I had lost - better than losing the camera. It works without any problems. Its size is about the same as the original and it takes as long to recharge the battery. I can't think of anything that is missing. I was getting ready to leave on a trip when I discovered the loss and Adorama got it to me in the promised 3 days.
