Default china chargers

Mine has a chinese plug. Does anyone know where to get a matching socket that I can put on the end of a cord?
I don't want to cut the end off my charger. I don't know if it works and I don't want to void my warranty. I want to avoid an adapter as a permanent solution.
I don't recommend anyone buy BestGo batteries or chargers.
Thanks!

Not sure what end your talking about, but is this a two round prong plug like the europian type ???

If so you can go to radio shack and get an adaptor. Since your not stating where you live, I'm assuming due to your name your in the USA.

Wouldn't you need a recepticle type end? The adapters I've seen are going the other direction.

Is it a recessed male computer/printer 3-prong? That is what Chennic comes with. You might just need a computer cord...

Picture?

Cutting off the plug and wiring on another one from the hardware store is easy cheesy lemon squeesy.

I am in the US, but I didn't think that was relevant. The question was where to buy a Chinese socket/receptacle.

It doesn't matter any more. After two months of asking, I finally got the response that cutting the cord won't void the warranty.

I'll just add a length I need to get to the filler plug I bought.

Thanks for all the responses.

Sorry,

You should have started with that picture.

It's a Type I plug, or AS-3112.

I find it in 10 minutes on Google.
