Hi,

Unfortunately my CB-5L (Charger for the BP511/512) has been stolen ...

Does anyone know where I can buy it in the UK at a reasonable price??

I am currently located in Glasgow but will be leaving the UK on the 29th...

Thanks in advance.

Jacky

I can't help you with UK locations.. but you may wnat to look up the "Lenmar Mach1 Speed Charger"

Here it is at a US distributer.

It charges BP-511s faster and more efficiently .. and will charge dozens of other lithium ION batts.. and it costs less than the canon in most places. I'd guess that in the UK the savings may be even more.

Warehouse Express keeps them in stock, unfortunately £40.

Try ebay!

Sometimes, people who buy a new camera and keep the old one, sell off the redundant items.
I got an original Canon charger for about 40 EUR.

Best regards,
Andy

I think I've got one going spare - I'm on Merseyside. Make me an offer and it will be with you well before the end of the month. You pay the actual postage too though.

Thx Everyone!

I have decided to go with the Uniross Multi-charger (compatible with lots of other batteries as well).

However, I am getting it from this site:
http://www.battery-force.co.uk/

(Has anyone used them before?)

it's 30 pounds including shipping, so it's a pretty good deal i guess(?).

Just hope I will receive it before I leave.
