Charging DSLR battery on the go?

I have a USB battery pack that I use to charge my tablet and iPhone.  Is there DSLR battery charger that will plug into one a USB battery pack to charge on the fly?

G'day RT

We have several 12volt [vehicle] devices that then use a USB cable to feed into the device ... be it a book reader, modem etc. You might find one of these things that will direct connect into your battery charger, so that you can charge from both a USB source and a 12volt source [all our battery chargers are vehicle based as that is our home-on-the highway]

Hope this helps

I carry an inverter for charging camera batteries in vehicle. Much faster than a usb. Away from the truck, if I'll be pressed for power, I hook up my Anker battery pack and "Tether Tools Case Relay Camera Power System", and "Tether Tools Relay Camera Coupler for Nikon Cameras with EN-EL15 Battery"...for many hours power....

Why so serious?

You want an inverter for the car; very inexpensive. Or something like this:

There are other brands out there, I believe.

No eBay APP ID défined in Kunena configurationI got this one

from ebay. It works although I doubt you will get a full deep charge but enough to keep you going. I haven't used it with a power bank but with a good one it should be fine. I have used it with the usb car output to top off charge while driving.

Search eBay for this I'm sure you'll find one. I've had one for a while.

Mine didn't come with 4 batteries but that looks the same. I haven't tried with a battery pack but usb charging works good. Not as good as a full power charge but good enough when there isn't an alternative.
