This product needs a 3.7-4.2 volt charger, NOT 5V like my iPhone has. Where do I get a charger for it?
Asked by: Don
I think the problem is that I was looking at a different product info on the ZWO website so the specifications I was looking at was not for the Seestar. I have been using a 5volt power supply and everything is working just fine. Sorry for the mixup and B&H should remove my original question.
