You need to stick to the UK website, But its just a micro usb cable and charger that you can buy in any store if you can keep the plug dry or indoors.

I still prefer the Wyse cameras over the Blinks which I toyed with for a while - still running both though
For power, there are plenty of phone charger type PSUs around almost any USB charger would do ( a decent branded one over Chinese cheap- its going to be on 24 hours)
and you can get some very long USB cables to extend it to where you need it - of course there are limits to how long

Thanks, ordered from the states through Amazon (so no need to faff around with shipping sites).

Planning on using outdoors.
Bought the v3.
The outdoor is on v2 but the reviews are poor and the camera quality poorer.0 -
Just for future reference if someone is using this thread - If you want one for evidence in prosecution with the police you need a specific high quality image. Need to check with them. Simple cameras are fine for initial identification.
I can rise and shine - just not at the same time!
