This may be a bit off topic but it is camera related.
My new D7200 came with a battery charger that is in two parts. One part plugs into the wall and converts the 110V. to the voltage required by the battery. So far, so good. The "pan" that contains the battery is plugged into the smaller (110V) section and has to be supported only by the smaller low voltage plug. I can forsee in time, the smaller plug breaking from supporting the weight of the battery.
I hope this explaination makes sense to someone. I thought of plugging it onto an extension cord so the whole thing can rest on a tabletop or shelf rather than a wall socket. I could post a picture if you can tell me how to do it.
Any thoughts?
