Why two chargers? Combine them.
Nikon provides two different battery chargers for the S8200, which are opposite in almost every respect. The EH-69P, which comes with the camera, charges the battery inside the camera using the USB cable. It plugs directly into the AC outlet, which means no separate power cord to pack around and/or lose. The MH-65, has a cradle to charge the battery outside the camera, but it has a separate power cord (does not plug directly into the AC outlet).
I suppose Nikon is trying to satisfy different needs, but why can’t they combine these into one universal adapter? Here are the specs, more or less in order of importance.
1. Charge a battery outside the camera, like the MH65. This is critical for those who use multiple batteries.
2. Plugs directly into the outlet, like the EH69P. This eliminates the need for a separate power cord. To make this more usable, have the plug flip out from the edge, instead of the back.
3. Charge the battery inside the camera, like the EH89P. Ideally, it could do both at the same time. This requires a cable, but if it’s the USB cable, it’s not an extra cable. If I don’t need this feature, I can leave that cable home.
4. Has a separate power cable to the AC outlet for cases where there is not enough space to plug the adapter directly into the outlet. If I don’t need this capability, I can leave the power cable home.
Oh, and if you use the search box on this site to locate these products, be sure to spell them EXACTLY. The site is not smart enough to find "mh65". You must type "mh-65".

Needs to be improved
I just purchased the Nikon MH-65 charger for my new Coolpix S9100. The charger works fine but the design does not meet today's standards in my opinion.
My 4 year old Panasonic has a charger that plugs directly into a wall outlet. The Nikon MH-65 charger uses a long electrical cord to plug into power. The Coolpix S9100 is small and light weight. It seems counter intuitive to me that the charger would require the use of a separate power cord which adds to the weight and amount of extras that have to be carried around. If Nikon cannot design a charger that plugs directly into the wall outlet, at least design the AC charger to use the same power cord that is used to charge the battery while the battery is in the camera.
The instructions with the charger are for a different charger/battery combination. The literature should be updated or the correct literature should be included with the MH-65.

MH-65 Battery Charger

Is there a power cord for the S9100 that plugs DIRECTLY into an outlet?
You did not answer "Ginger"s question. I have the same question -- is there a charger with a flip out connector that plugs directly into a wall socket? I know that you can charge the battery with it in the camera with the supplied connector. That's not what I want. I want a charger for my spare battery that plugs directly into a socket that doesn't have a long cord.

Hi, mademt. to answer your question, no not from Nikon. HOWEVER 3rd party chargers do. I saw one in the store from Energizer that was compatible for the battery pack that plugged directly into the wall. Looked like it would be great for travel.Jan 5, 2012 by

Answer:
You can charged the battery outside the camera using the MH-65 charger (only) besides the Charging AC Adapter EH-69p.
You still didn't answer the question whether the M65 uses a cord or not. Does the battery fit inside the M-65 then flip out plug directly into the outlet. I noticed the M65 has a USB port. Why is the port necessary if the charger fits directly into the outlet?

Answer:
The M65 Charger itself does NOT have a USB port. their is a port to plug in a power cord. To charge the battery you remove the battery, and put it into the M65 charger. The M65 charger should have a cord that came with it that plugs from your electrical outlet on the wall to the side of the M65 charger. There is no other way to charge your battery. I hope that helps!!

Answer:
The MH-65 comes with a power cord (not a USB), goes from the charger to the outlet.
I have misplaced the charger cord for my S8100 camera. I see that the compatible charger, Mh-65, is out of stock and there are no Nikon stores available to me. How can I order one. I have an important event coming up in May and would like to take care of this by then.

What battery chargers are available for the Coolpix 9100 that don't have a cord?
My prior camera has a battery charger with a plug that flips out so it is really compact and doesn't need a long cord to tote around.

Answer:
The blinking (not flickering) light in the charger means is charging. When is solid light it means that the battery is fully charge. The information is avaliable in the user's manual for your camera.1 of 1
