Default External 12 Volt battery (STC-12VBB) AC Charger Help

I misplaced the A/C Charger for my StealthCam External 12 Volt battery (STC-12VBB).*

I found some AC chargers here at home but I can't tell which one came with my Stealthcam 12 volt battery.*

Anyone know how I can identify the correct AC charger? If anyone has one can you post a picture of your charger??*

I contacted Stealthcam and they will sell me a new one but why would I buy one if I already have it?? I just don't know which one is the one that came with the battery



Also can I use a 12 volt battery charger like a battery tender plus to charge this 12 volt battery?

What kind of charger can I use to charge my External Stealthcam 12 Volt battery?

I would appreciate any help!

Here is a link: http;//www.nativeoutdoors.com/scouting_accessories.html
Scroll down to "Stealth Cam External Battery Kit". It shows a picture of the charger. Now if you can enlarge the picture you may be able to compare it to what you have. Good luck.
The battery tender may work as long as it does not put out too high an amperage. I use it on my motorcycle battery. This battery contains liquid (sulphuric acid and water) and not a jell type. The battery tender in my case will shut down when the battery is charged. I purchased my battery tender at WalMart.

I couldn't open the link you posted, but I did find the 12 volt battery on their website. The connector on the AC Charger is different from the battery I have. My battery has a barrel plug. So the AC Charger should have a barrel plug too.

Thanks man.

Maybe someone who has the actual AC Charger for the 12 volt battery can post a picture or the AC Chargers specs.

What pisses me off is that StealthCam won't help me. They want to sell me one. But I already have it I just don't know which one it is. Anything for a buck. Sheesh.

Look up the manual on their website and it will tell you the exact voltage/amperage the output of the DC converter and then compare with what you have.

Here you go, this is the one that came with my STC-12VBB. Hope that solves your problem. I am suprised you had problems with Stealth Cam, they have also bent over backwards to help me any time I talked to them.

I have yet to receive a response from StealthCam I even posted the question on their Facebook Wall and nothing!!

Oh they were fast to try to sell me one, but not to help me identify the one I already have.

Again thank you so much!!
