Hi!

I have an OM Systems mirrorless OM-5(i), which is powered by BLS-5 / BLS-50 batteries. In the
United States I have Watson chargers which charge these on standard 115v circuits,

The question is what is the appropriate thing to use when I want to charge same on London circuits.
I have British adapter plugs but I don't know if those have the circuitry to adapt the British grid to
these batteries.

I am looking for a recommendation by model and designation for an adapter that'll work and be safe
which I can buy from a photo store in the United States before we leave.

Thanks for any suggestions. I typically use B&H Photo Video in NYC or one of the photo stores around Boston.
Need enough specificity to find the item and have it shipped to me. I have no way of testing until I get to London.

Thanks much.

Can you not use a usb lead to charge your battery, I was faced with this problem a few days ago as I never took my charger away and simply plugged in a usb lead to recharge my om1
