Abstract
A camera or other device having a rechargeable battery is intended to be stored normally in a cavity of a charging-stand cradle in order to restore an electrical charge to the battery. The cradle includes a plug module that may be electrically connected to a standard alternating current (AC) outlet when the plug module is affixed to the cradle. Conversely, the plug module may be separated from the cradle to connect it to a remote AC outlet.
