I recharge my vapote with that of batteries. That is to say that I use the charger continuously, since I need at least one battery per day. This charger is doing its job. I did however put a damper on the note because the charger tends to make a little noise when it has finished loading. Generally, this is a sign that the electrical components are not very good, and the camera will not take long. However, for now, it works non stop without incident for 3 months. It is at this stage still a fair price performance ratio.
