Amazon is charging me > $50 dollar for a freaking charger that probably costs a couple of dollars to produce.
Look at the voltage and amperage of your current charger, or better still, take it with you to the local electronics store and ask them for a similar one. We have one over here that is switchable and comes with interchangeable connections to suit various appliances.
