The likelihood of finding an OEM part like a charger is rare. Especially if the charger is for an odd battery for a camera that is no longer made.

Noting the model number and manufacturer (of the battery and/or camera) you may have some luck. Try the manufacturer or even online places like EBay. You may try estate and garage sales. You may get lucky.
An unusual experience I had was I bought a really old light meter. Unfortunately, it had a Mercury Oxide battery. Since it was not available, I searched far and wide for a replacement battery. Yes, it was an expensive replacement.
Good Luck!

At Goodwill I recently found a brand new Empire ( the R is reversed) charger for Nikon batteries. It has different shaped slots for 8 different Nikon battery configurations.

I didn’t think of Goodwill or Salvation Army. I hope they prove successful.

Any thoughts will be appreciated.

Thank you.


Ebay is your friend.

Sometimes chargers are sold with replacement batteries.

I have a silly question. What kind of battery charger are you looking for? Perhaps someone here on the hog might have something they are not using. It may prove helpful to list the camera, and battery type. You never know if you will get successful.
