Got mine from Maplin in Cork they came with a charger that took both mains and 12v from the car. They have 1 or 2 Maplins in Dublin.

Argos also do them cat no.980/0562 2700mah @ €24.99

You can buy the larger mahbatteries seperate and the same charger will do for charging them.

Hi guys. Try a web site called 7 Day Shop ([url]http://www.7dayshop.com/catalog/default.php?cPath=777[/url]). Great stuff and cheap. I have these batteries (3 packs of 4) and they last the distance with my camera taking 150+ pics and video per charge. ([url]http://www.7dayshop.com/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=777_3&products_id=101842[/url]). At £4.29 a set they can't be beat

Yes, 7 day shop are excellent. I have used them numerous times. They have put up their carriage to the Republic in recent times to something like 10.00 stg. So be aware and try to get as big an order together as possible.
