[Leica] Battery Charger Connections

[Jim Nichols]

Tina,

I searched and found this on the Leica Forum:

https://www.l-camera-forum.com/topic/263070-charging-the-sl-battery-whilst-backpacking-is-there-a-solution/

It says that the SL battery draws too much current, hence can't be used 
on a USB connection.

It also says the SL does not support in-camera charging.

There are some other way-out ideas you might ask Tom to look at.
