Hey I only have a europe plug and my usb wont charge my 100% dead battery.. soooo.... Can I cut one of these on the end and attached the SE end? One is 4.5V and the other is 6V.. Any clue?




Also.. I found cigarette lighter that is 12v.. I can't use that right?

You could buy a travel plug or a mains adaptor for the car charger. At least in Sweden there is also a usb to mains adaptor.

I'm trying to save you money as well mate- the battery is only 3.6v and sooner or later you will fry it. (Borrow someones car socket for 10mins?)
