car adapter

So I got a K10d a while back and am loving it. I will going on a few trips later on and was wondering if there is a car adapter for the charger? I have been looing around, but can not seem to find anything.

Nothing in the UK either, so I use a voltage inverter like this one.

Seek out a local electronics supplier for one that suits your local voltage, then you can run a lap top and any other equipment that you might want to use as well.

I bought one of these on eBay plus a couple of CTA (3rd party) batteries for my K20D, and they have all worked fine:

You can't really see it in that picture, but the US-type plug folds into the charger itself, so it's good for traveling -- just a small plastic block with nothing sticking out. The European plug adapter has to sit over the top of that, though. The car adapter has a separate cord that plugs into a jack on the charger block.

(For Lloydy) I can't vouch for how they handle international transactions, but I can say that Cameta shipped promptly to my US address, and the price was pretty good.

No regrets.

Excellent, I'll get my brother in Canukia to order me one.
