PS Vita: General Discussion

[Nataku17]

i have lost my UK mains charger and AC Adaptor for the Vita, anyone know where i can pick up an official one?

[robster52]

these might be hard to come across, try ebay.

if yr just looking to charge it the psp mains charger works and i've not tested it but think the ipod or blackberry chargers will work, usb charging is universal

Try here

I think these should do the trick and for a tenner quite reasonable. 

Good luck TINTIN

Be very careful, I got 2 from ebay. Both charge the vita but you cannot use it while charging as the machine locks.

I use my usb port on pc now to charge it at work.

You could call Sony customer service and explain to them. They may charge you for it but you might be able to get one from them.

I bought one off Amazon and as someone else has said the non official ones dont let you charge and play

I find it strange but neither mine, nor my partners Vitas can charge in either of our Laptops, even with USB charging enabled.

[BlackKnightJP]

It may be because the laptop's USB ports don't provide enough power. Also keep in mind when connected directly to USB the Vita only charges when it's off. It's just like the iPad and iPhone.

Maybe, none of the computers I've tried have been able to charge it successfully, the vita just power cycles then tries to boot again, or alternatively does nothing and is still flat 6 hours later.

This may help.

I found out at the weekend that my htc charger works . Its a 3 pin plug to usb that you plug the htc usb in to.

I plugged in my vita in to it and it charges and lets me play it at the same time .

Hope this helps

it looks like this
