I don't think he's asking how to charge the Vado. He wants something that will charge a second battery while the Vado is being used - an external battery charger.

You can charge it with any USB charger. And the price of Vado just dropped to $59.99!

Hi Cristino, I am also wondering if I could charge VADO HD with a USB wall charger. What's your finding?

Can I charge the VADO HD using a china-made 300mah USB wall charger I use for my china-mp3 players?The Vado HD set does not come with a wall charger, so you can only charge it using the PC. But can I use a separate charger that I have for it? My china-made charger reads "200-300mah at 5v"

Hi Dan...I bought the charger to analyze some 14.4 volt batteries from an unknown source. Here's what I said in my review: "It handles the batteries OK but the chargers autopsy pronounced them unresponsive. The next challenge is to find a battery replacement. Hitachi makes one that appears to have the right electrical tabs but I have to see it in person before I'm sure it's the right one." It is a "universal" charger which means a number of batteries from 14 to 18 volts fit the slots. I don't know what batteries Harbor Freight use in their tools but I bet they are some of China's "best". Their web site was no help....

Why is AMAZON itself selling fake or counterfeit batteries. I bought SONY two slot charger/AC Adapter and it only displays all the data on my original NP-FV50 and NOT the new from AMAZON, not a marketplace seller, NP-FV70 battery in retail packaging I just got. It does not ever display the BATTERY LIFE info or time left for charging etc like the LCD displays on my NP-FV50 that came packed with my camcorder. Very upsetting that AMAZON itself is selling what seems to be fake copies, as there is no reason they should not display the data on screen of charger. It says non-sony batteries do not have the communication circuitry to display this info on charger instruction sheet that came with SONY dual slot charger/AC adapter.

I had the same problem. I found, the "hard to find" charger on ebay. The price was $80, give or take $10.

I have been looking but can only find the car charger for $20 online. I had another 6 volt charger and bought a plug in connector for the charging port and wired it in. Currently charging my unit. I was close to ordering a complete unit including the wall charger, car charger and the zap light for $50 on Amazon prior to finding my alternate fix.

Yes it is a good price! I paid almost $500 for mine over 4 years ago! But please be aware, I am now in need of a third battery charger. I don't know why they go out, but they do. Maybe this new design (the black one) will be better. If it comes with the orange charger, then you will have the old design. Good luck - great mower!

Voltage would the same. 10440 are a different size though. Not by much. Check the Nitecore Intelligent charger. By this and your done. About $13 and you can charge almost anything. The new model is a great item. A real go to charger.

Glad I was able to help. If you are not sure what charger you would like to have, I can tell you that this is the one that I have been using for over a year now and it works fine for around $40.00La Crosse Technology BC-700 Alpha Power Battery Charger

WHile this is POSSIBLE to replace your NiCd battery, I'm not sure if the bracketry that holds the batteries on will work to hold it in place. ALso you would have to buy a separate Battery charger that is designed for Lithium Ion batteries because your NiCd battery charger is NOT compatible with Lithium Ion batteries. Other than those issues you can always change the TYPES of batteries as long as the Voltage is the same but as you can see, sometimes, you run into other problems while doing so.

For a charging device it is too expensive I would expect this kind of price from a PC docking device that charges and syncs that also comes with the ability to gauge the internal battery's lifespan. Something like the LaCrosse charger for double/triple A (AA/AAA) batteries. See link belowLa Crosse Technology BC-700 Alpha Power Battery Charger

I use a Nitecore IntelliCharger. The price is actually the lowest I've seen yet. 2014 Version NITECORE i4 Intellicharge Battery Charger works great, doesn't over charge.

You might check at an electronic store. The charger looks like it might be a sort of common item.

This is the charger: 2014 Version NITECORE i4 Intellicharge Battery Charger This is a GREAT and BRIGHT light but DO NOT take it underwater, at least more than 10 feet under.

I went to radio shack and bought one of their universal chargers. The employee showed me the correct one and it works great!

We needed one as well and I found it on a website but I can't remember which one. I googled "charger for seascooter dolphin" and it came right up. It was expensive so don't be alarmed!

As far a I know, all of the Fisher Price 12 volt batteries are the same. but I can't say for sure so check the end on the charger and if it looks able to fit then I would buy it. If it doesn't fit, the return policies through Amazon are pretty decent.
