Right, the only one of the non-OEM batteries that includes it. If
Delkin didn't provide it (for an Olympus battery, normally $59.99
btw), one might be inclined to think they were worth $40. :) In
helping a friend with her camera I discovered several other very
valuable accessories. If a second battery charger is needed,
Olympus has them for $120. If only the charger's AC power cord is
needed, they want $20. Fortunately, B&H sells a compatible
aftermarket charger (presumably including an AC cord) for about what
Olympus wants for just a replacement power cord. Olympus shouldn't
be singled out though. I saw similar high prices for my old Canon
Powershot S10's accessories. Amazing but true, that little 2mp P&S
with practically no manual controls (other than WB and flash
settings) originally sold for $1000. It's a classic, and I could be
tempted to trade it (or the similar S20) for a 350D or D70s. :)
