Hello, I’m looking for help sourcing a charger for this camcorder battery. It’s a Canon MD101 camcorder and the battery says Canon E160814.

If anyone knows or has a link to one online I’m lost and don’t want buy one that ends up wrong. Thanks so much.

Bring it in to an electrical shop and ask them . They should have cables and see what one fits . Even a phone shop might be of help . Anywhere that sells cables .

You didn't look very hard.

Edit.

After trying the link again it shows as not in stock, but if you just google the make and model of the charger it shows as in stock and I could buy it if I wanted .

The OP is looking for a charger not a cable though.

You'll likely need a new battery too if that one is vey old. It can be hard to but batteries online as some companies don't like the hassle of shipping them - Amazon in particular.

Search ebay (or just Google) for Canon BP-2L5 battery and charger and you'll get one cheap enough.
