Match the charger to the battery code first

Chargers are organised by the battery code they charge and by camera brand. A charger that fits one code does not charge another, and a dual charger does not double the output of a single slot. Start from the code printed on your battery, then check slots, inputs and per-slot output.

What the one fully specified charger on this site shows

The DMW-BLK22 LCD dual charger has its own detail page with a specification table covering its display, slots, inputs, per-slot output, protections and body material. Its compatibility list covers Panasonic Lumix cameras using DMW-BLK22 batteries, including the S5, S5 II, GH5 II, GH6, GH7 and L10 lines as listed on the product page. Read the figures on that detail page; this guide does not repeat them.

That is the only charger specification table on this site. Other charger pages are family pages: they describe charger families (DC dual, multi-functional, AC dual, AC travel, single USB, dual-plate USB) without specification tables.

Inputs, displays and protections to check

Check whether the charger takes the inputs your setup already uses, whether it shows charge level while charging, and which protections it lists. Before ordering, check the code printed on your original battery or charger and the camera model it came with. If the code on your item does not match the fitment named on this page, ask through the inquiry form before payment so the match can be confirmed. Certificates available upon request.

Before ordering

Confirm the battery or charger code printed on your original item, the voltage and capacity you need, and the certification scope and warranty terms that apply to your order. Confirm MOQ, lead time and pricing for your order through the inquiry form before payment. Certificates available upon request.

Wholesale inquiry — Send the camera model, the accessory type and the quantity range you are planning through the contact form, and the supplier can confirm fitment and terms for your order.
