    Hello. I couple of months back, my PS Vita charger stopped working seemingly randomly. Does anybody know where I can get one for sale on its own without the console? The plug would have to be useable in Irish plug sockets, and I'd prefer if I could get one like the charger shipped with the console that has the USB adapter available for use with PCs/PS3s etc as well as the charger.:)

    Check out Ebay or Amazon.

    Doesn't matter if it's got a continental plug, don't you have the old power cable ?

    The power cable is the end that's broken. I can't charge it anymore from the mains meaning the maximum voltage is much lower than it would be if I didn't use the USB on the computer or PS3.

    The mains cable or the usb cable is broken ?

    Is the charger unit itself working ?

    The mains cable would not be a problem if getting it on Ebay from the continent as you could either put on an Irish/U.K plug or get an adaptor.

    The mains cable doesn't work at all. The USB unit did work but it was a bit hit and miss with the PS3 and PC. I usually had to stategically position it so it would actually charge, so I might want one of those too. I'd like a complete unit preferably but I definitely need a mains cable.

    That doesn't seem too bad, a fair enough price. I'm price comparing from a direct order but I don't have a figure yet, or if it's even available. Cheers for the link cadete.
