Ebay
You can get a charger pretty cheap- under $12 including shipping on Ebay. Make sure you get the right one. I purchased a car charger for the phone but TWO retailers sent me the wrong one. It seems that tehre is another smartphone that is named SX66.
To avoid the confusion you can search for i-mate PDA2k charger. here si the one I bought, although it's a car charger: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=5876061855
Thanks,

Thinking about using my Vario III as a sat nav for when I go to California - I'm going to be renting a car there. Will UK car chargers fit the lighter socket, or do I need to buy a car charger specifically for american cars..? Can someone point me in the right ebay direction if so?
Yes it will. 12V standard for cars. Trucks and caravans might be 24V, but all the cars should be fine.
Having used my kaiser in the UK and US I can state 100% that yes the car charger will work in the US, in fact the mains charger will also work in the US if you get a plug adapter (I got mine from walmart for $9, it is a fully universal adapter with surge arrestor.)
Only thing you will need are the US maps for whatever GPS software you want to use.
Does anyone know where to purchase the connecting piece for the charger for a european outlet? The US plug detaches so I would imagine you could put any foreign outlet you wanted on there.
serch in ebay for "us eu adapter" ( I finded x3 pices for 0.99 USD ). it`s much less than buy a new one ( e.g. - usb cable charges too )
Having looked at a number of UK websites, only one said a USB cable came with the charger. I had been planning on buying an OEM 2 amp charger. Then I saw Clove were saying it came with a spare USB cable so the price of £24.99 didn't seem so bad any more. Got it on Friday and, yes, it did have a USB cable in the pack.
Tried it in my car runing Co-Pilot sat nav and my battery indicator showed that the charge was still going up so I am very pleasedwith it.
Only slightly disappointing thing is that the charger has only one output whereas some of the OEM ones have two, one 2 amp and one 1 amp. However, I tried it with my charger splitter and it still showed the charge was going up.
most cheap usb car charges have a screwable top; just take out the glass fuse and replace it with a 2amp/2000mA fuse which you can get at autozone, radio shack,home depot....pretty much anywhere
Really? if i just change the glass fuse i can use any usb car charge?
Is not dangerous for the electric impiant of the car?
No You can't. It is not the fuse that decides how much current the charger can give.
The fuse just protects the charger from blowing if something fails.
The regulator used in the charger sets the charging current.
true you can buy a regulator at radio shack. i've seen the 7805 for about a buck 50.
Ok, tnx guy!
Go to Best Buy or your local Apple store and pickup the Incase Ipad car charger. I've tested and works just fine with the Tab.

There are generic 2A USB cigarette lighter / car chargers on eBay for a third of the price. Worth trying too
Would you mind posting a pic of the charger?
I just bought Samsungs Car Adapter kit (ECA-P10CBECSTD) from local store, 27.90€.
It comes with cigarette lighter 12/24V usb adapter, 2 Amps 5V output, and a proprietary Samsung Tab usb cable.
A little pricey, ok, but now I have a second usb cable and a car adapter with enough output amps without fuss.

Here's the one from Clove.
Amazon UK are selling the Samsung car charger for £20.83. Pretty good deal with free delivery.
[edit]
Or there's this one also on Amazon for 99p (+£4.50 delivery!) which apparently can charge the Tab. You still need to add in the cost of the proprietary Samsung USB cable though to match the official car charger features, so not much of a bargain really...

My only concern is nowhere does it mention the cable actually comes with the charger.

That's all fine and dandy Paul but will an individual be bothered contacting officials just for the sake of a few pounds.
No, what I'm saying is why is it not listed..... and if anyone is considering purchasing one I would recommend they save themselves any issues by first contacting the seller to ascertain if the cable is indeed part of the deal.
If you check the item model number it's listed as a charger, nothing further.

OK well I've just ordered one so we'll soon see . The picture on Amazon looks almost identical to the one on Clove. Here's hoping they're the same otherwise I've bought the world's most expensive charger .
Guys, just so you know, you can get very cheap 2A chargers on ebay. The cable problem is still impossible to solve, but I'm sure Hong Kong people are working on it, so it might be best to wait a month and order a cheap replacement cable, rather then paying ridiculous amount of money for Samsung's original cable.
I ordered one of these a couple weeks ago:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dl...b43hTuXib7JjWUKJhg%3D&viewitem=#ht_1776wt_959
Came in today, and I swear the sync cable it came with is identical to the one my Tab came with, right down to the Samsung logo.
Car charger itself is a 5.0v/2000mA, looks well built, fused, and comes in a very nice retail package.
Considering the cable alone is $29 from my carrier, it's a hell of a deal. I basically bought a cable for $23 and got a car charger for free.
Hey croak that cellet charger doesnt work. it has the charging symbol crossed out... I guess you need to do usb2usb soldering mod to use any 5v2A charger. I saw the thread on here...

Paul,
Any luck with this item?
Just purchased the phone and it will arrive next week,bought from Amazon at €449,
I live in Ireland and we use 3 pin plugs but I will be getting the EU 2 pin plug with the phone,
Is it safe to use the vooc charger in a 3 pin adapter ?
I'm slightly worried about this technology,
I will probably buy an 18 watt UK charger to supplement it son so that the battery is not overcharged on a regular basis
As long as you use the correct voltage it should be fine using converter to 3 pin plug. Mine is EU socket with voltage range from 100-240V 50/60hz.

Cheers ,have a 3 pin adapter that says 240v on it but also says use with shavers only so might find a new one
You can use an adaptor but can't the the cheap ones ! Buy a good one ! You will be ok after that !
I live in Ireland and purchased the phone from Amazon Spain and I have the charger plugged in to an adapter and works no problem the Super Vooc charging works as intended also.
As long as the adapter has 13amp fuse and 240v you will be good to go
As above... Just use a adapter with a 13a fuse as all your looking at doing is allowing the plug to fit a UK socket... There's no voltage conversion involved or needed so don't get a actual voltage converter.

I've seen something like this(attached pic) recommended on other sites so ordered one. It should hold the EU plug securely with a little luck

Having received this black adapter on eBay I can confirm the realms EU plug will not fit into the back of it,you are better getting a UK travel adapter from your local pound shop or hardware store,the ones that plug in from the top,I got one and it works no bother.
Other observations Ive made are that my OnePlus 6T charger works with the phone and the device seems to be charging around 30w and displays vooc in the animation on the device,
