Charging a gopro via aniPhone mains adaptor

    I've tried using myiPhone mains charger and the supplied cable but it doesn't seen to like charging from that, a guy I spoke to said that it was because the iPhone wall adaptor is only 1a, however the official Gopro charger only has a 1 amp output per port.

    Any suggestions (not including leaving my computer on whilst I use that) over spending 20 odd quid on an adaptor?

    Sorted it, looks like the charger off my Exposure Diablo head torch has the required ooompphhh to charge it.

    7dayshop.com is always a good option for that sort of thing, I got a plug in usb charger for £1.99 and works great for loads of that sort of thing. The only problem is I go to buy one thing for a really low price and find a couple of other 'useful' things whilst I'm on the site that I end up buying.

    The iPhone charger is only fairly low power so won't charge the GoPro very well.
