Patona/Wasabi have some of the super handy traveler battery chargers, comes with micro and regular USB ports, AC port and cable for both AC and car ligther.

 

I have been using my old powerbank (5200 mah) as my 4 and 5th battery. If I know beforehand that I will have a super long shooting day, I take out the 20000 mah Limefuel.

i usually see Patona in Europe and Canada. in the States, we only get the Wasabi offerings. are you saying Patona/Wasabi have chargers with the micro/USB port? i'm tried to find one from Wasabi to see if they have one with a 2 batt combo.

The Patona has them for certain, I have one in my possession. As for the Wasabi, I was told on another forum that they are cousin/sister/whatever company of Wasabi, thus should have the same things but just re-branded.

 

BUT upon closer inspection from what I can see on Amazon.com, it doesn't look like the Wasabi chargers have the extra ports like you can see here, it's on the 4th picture.

 

In short, I can confirm that Patona has the traveler friendly charger but Wasabi doesn't seems to.

I have one of these that I got from Amazon that I use when I'm travelling. I've found it reliable enough that I don't bother with the standard charger when I'm travelling. I have charged batteries in it using an Anker power pack (I have the E4).

The battery charger that I have used is bestek 300w power inverter. Connecting this inverter with my car cigarette lighter charger outlet, I have acquired how to charge camera battery in safe way. Since I just know how to use, but don't know more details about this tool. Maybe you can search bestemall on Google to catch more information about this inverter. Wish this point is helpful to you.

I use a OAproda (Don’t see it anymore on Amazon) with my GoalZero panel when I’m out for extended periods. I also have a Anker battery pack that works well with it. It does work connected to my solar panel, daisy chaining two work better. The best method is changing the backup batteries the use them with the USB battery charging your USB Fujifilm battery changer at bedtime, keep it warm in your sleeping bag with you to get a fully changed, cold interferes with changing.

Anyone use something to charge their batteries with a USB power bank?

 

I'm looking at this: http://www.amazon.com/OAproda%C2%AE-NP-W126-Portable-FUJIFILM-Camcorder/dp/B00QLHDMX8/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1435683932&sr=8-4&keywords=usb+np-w126

 

Well, the worst that can happen is I waste $9 and maybe a $10 battery.

you can use any powerbank with "USB C-PD output" to run the camera or charge the battery in-camera . hope this helps . have a nice day !

      Hello. Thankyou,now Is all more clear: I have take some time in your link. Let tell you. I has totaly forget this machine have "compress picture option" and not Only "compress lossless" anyway not change the experiment. RAW  and this last two format look like same result about Number of recording picture. Can tell all results in this: in raw you can make 17 pictures for second. Is wrong. Is about One single Press and wait buffer. Full 30/20/10/8 not change. After 17 Need Press again. You not can Press before "redgreen light recording Is on".   With preshot you can have 25  are more 7 pictures . The story change Only in jpg shot only. In jpg at 30 you have 30 picture but redgreen light off very Fast so you can shot very quicly. At 20 shot Is about start look like infinite shot. 60. So the best performance are this last One  about Speed and recording picture after camera working witout big limit. I want take a shot about Italy cyclet Just for passion. I think i Will use this last setting.  After Need check when battery not are full change and ambient temp.  Anyway my cam look like exactly specific about you link. Im Happy my cam working perfectly.

      I do not use Flickr, so I do not know what their BB code is. All I did was copy the second link you provided, (starting at https: and ending at  _k.jpg — leave off the [img] and [/img] tags) and pasted it into the message. After a moment, a message popped up asking if I wanted to paste it as the image or as a plain link. I did this twice, the first time I had it paste in as the image and the second time as a link. Nothing fancy or tricky.

      So do I just copy the BB code from flickr and paste it anywhere on the page like other forums or is there some other trick I need to perform to get it to post?
