Hello Friends,
I am an amateur photographer, and I am looking forward to taking pictures of all the beautiful people at 'Roo. However, I have a dilemma. My camera of choice eats batteries like spicy pie, and I want to keep it charged. I have 3 batteries total, but don't want to have an extra 6-7 just for 'Roo. Additionally, I don't think that the charging station at the locker tent is ideal.
I am considering purchasing one of these: (http://www.ebay.com/itm/USB-Battery-Charger-for-FUJIFILM-NP-95-BC-65S-X-S1-FinePix-W1-X100-X100LE-X100S-/380804568996?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item58a9b897a4) which will let me charge my batteries w/ a USB port.
Will this work with the little one-time phone chargers they sold for 5 bucks last year? I can't quite remember how those worked, does anyone have a link to those chargers so I can try and figure this out?

Aw, give the dude a break...I'm fat and ugly but at 'Roo we are all beautiful people!
Are you camping near your car? Can you buy a small inverter to run off your car battery, or can you use the DC direct? I've also seen these small laptop sized solar cells for recharging electronics. Also make friends with some of the vendors--they probably have AC and could be talked into charging your batteries. Good luck!
jrtmom wins. Get an AC adapter for your car and recharge.
Or, get lots of batteries. Batteries might cost less.
Or, get a new camera. I don't know that I had to recharge my camera at all during the last 2 Roo's. You'll get better pics, spend less on batteries, and everyone will look better (but no guarantees about smells).
