How do you charge a camera battery without a battery charger?

Answer 1

It can be dangerous, but it is possible. I have lost chargers and had to do it. But I wouldn't recommend it unless you pay close attention to it. The way I do it is I take a phone base. (A cordless phone base). I have 2 pieces of tin foil. I fold both pieces of tin foil so you have 2 long skinny pieces of tin foil, I then place each piece of the tin foil on the metal charging pieces of the wireless phone base. Then place one piece of tin foil on the - and one piece on the + of the battery. I then tape the tin foil to the battery and let it charge. Make sure you pay close attention to the battery so it doesn't over charge and start a fire.

Also, if you have a computer, you can take a USB cord and cut off the part that you would connect to a device (not the USB piece) then carefully separate the red wire and the black wire from the rest, Remove the casing from the wires. Place the red wire on the + on the battery, and then place the black wire on the - on the battery, then tape it on and let it charge, pay close attention, if it gets hot then you did something wrong and immediately remove the battery.

Answer 2

You can charge it from your computer just simply unlock the USB port that comes out from your camera and put it in the USB outlet in your computer you will have to wait a while but it is worth it. If that doesn't work I recommend you just buy the battery pack which isn't necessary because 80 out of 100% it will work, hope this helped you have fun recording!
