Any 12v 500mA positive tipped unit that fits will work

This is probably not true.I

am in the UK and bought one of these from Amazon USA. As it was a US plug on the charger I bought a UK adaptor matching exactly the spec from the US charger. Like you, although the LED on the spotlight lit up, it never finished charging and the three LEDs on the top would not work at all.

So I then bought a step down adaptor and used the US charger that came with the spotlight and it charged perfectly. I don't know why but generic chargers with the same spec don't charge this thing.

Attach it to a 12v source in your car in it will work like a dream still. Question is, can you get a spare charger from Stanley?
