GoPro question

Hi Guys

 

I have ordered one of these for the Easter holidays, however as we are going to the Monties I am not going to have the computer to charge the battery (thats how I understand you charge it anyway). Question is.... can you charge it with a 12v plug and is it specific to the unit or can I charge it with another appliance 12v? 

 

Cheers

the cameras charge via USB from the computer but you can buy a 12v cigarette plug with a USB port for charging away from your computer. The end that goes into your camera is the standard end used on most cameras and portable hard drives. Not sure if you can use these to charge though?
