external charger for st15i?

[pdh]

I'd like an external charger for my Xperia Mini so I can charge spare batteries away from the 'phone.

The SE site and SE support are next to useless for finding out what's available.

I can find any number of cheap chargers on eBay etc but I'd prefer original manufacturer equipment.

So far as I can tell, the EP950 (for the Vivaz?) is a set comprising an EP500 battery plus an EP920 usb charger ... but when I asked SE support about the EP920 they said it wasn't  compatible with the Xperia Mini ...

So, will the EP920 charge my EP500 ?

And if so, is the micro-USB port in the EP920 the same type (type B) as the Xperia Mini?

[pdh]

I'm really surprised no-one's responded -- other people must want to use an external charger?

can anyone advise?

OK for those who need to know, the EP920 can be used as an external charger for the EP500 battery.

(it just can't be used as a stand for theXperian Mini/Mini Pro)

hope this helps osmeone else ...
