Digital Camera

[G&L]

I hope to do the Annapurna Sanctuary Trek this March. I will be taking a digital camera with me, but was wondering if the tea houses and lodges on the trek will have plug sockets so I can re-charge it.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Answer
Yes you can but not everywhere! esp at high altitudes but some places have hydro plants and will do it free (haggle for it with the room price) or they may charge for it.
Hint
Its best to have 2 batteries and keep the one you are using warm. And have plently of Memory (yeh you can burn them to CDs in KTM or Pokhara)

enjoy

Yes, you can recharge at the lodge and this is free of charge but if possible you bring two batteries with you. But some of the area they may not have electricity supply.


Regards and enjoy you trip.

Power supply was not always easily available in some villages when I was trekking AC in Novemeber last year .

I brought along this energizer batteries for my Canon A70 and it prove really useful. Lasted for many days, but that was because i dont use the LCD and flashlight very often.
