Compact AC Wall Charger for Sony InfoLithium

This Kastar wall charger powers Sony NP-FM and NP-QM series lithium-ion batteries used in Handycam camcorders and Cyber-shot cameras. The foldable flat plug reduces bulk when the unit is stored in a gear bag. A red LED shows active charging while a green LED signals standby or full charge.

Replaces Lost or Damaged Sony BC-VM50 and BC-VM10

The charger accepts AC 100-240 V input and delivers DC 8.4 V at 600 mA, matching the original Sony specifications. It is a direct substitute when the factory charger is missing, faulty or left behind on a shoot. The upgrade is worthwhile whenever a spare charger lets you keep one at home and another in a travel kit.
