"So I showed you how to insert a battery, your other option for power is using your, plugging your camera in directly into your wall. Obviously this is only going to work when you have an outlet nearby so I definitely recommend getting those longer lasting batteries and not even worrying about this, but basically you are going to take your charger and instead of using it to charge your battery you are going to use it to connect your camera to the wall so we'll hook up the outlet side just like that and then we want to take this little doohickey and plug it in up here and then just like you inserted the battery you are going to take this and open up your battery case and then with the arrow pointing toward the lens of the camera that is how you insert it. And just like a battery slide it in till it clicks. It releases the same way too, right here, but you have got this cord to mess with so what they have done for that is when you close it, you see there is kind of a little opening here to let you run the cord out, that you don't need when you have a battery obviously, but when you have a cord just open that up and let it go straight down and then just like the battery, to get it out we'll just release it right here and it pops right out so that is how you can plug your XH A1 into the wall if you need to, but like I said, I really like using batteries and not even having to mess with plugging it into to the wall. The only reason I would plug into the wall is if I was going to put it on a tripod and was just going to shoot for hours and we're not moving so that's how you plug your camera into the wall."
