How can I charge the internal battery without plugging it into the vehicle and turning on the engine? Is there a house charger?

No house charge but you can just plug it in to 12v system and it charges without engine running

Get a power inverter which plugs into the cigarette lighter. The inverter kicks out AC electricity. You can plug your battery charger into the inverter which has an AC outlet.

Actually there is a separate charger that you can use to charge only the battery by itself, but you have to buy it separately. It's listed in Sony's accessory catalog.

There is no internal battery for you to charge on this unit. This device needs to be connected to a battery to work because its primary function is to invert DC current into AC current so you can use small household appliances, tools, stereo, lights etc... I've used this particular model for several years and it's my favorite inverter. I typically connect it to my car battery and I can power most of my office during a power outage. Note: Please be aware that a 500 Watt inverter like this one will drain your car battery very quickly if the car isn't running.

It charges an internal battery by usb port, so not that I know of ... however, at over 2 hours of battery life, you can take a pretty long trip with it.

You can order an 3rd party spare battery that also includes a battery charger that can plug into an AC outlet or the 12 volt aux. outlet in most cars You don't have to charge the battery in the camera

No. This charger goes onto your cranking battery and charges your accessory batteries. There is no household plug outlet.

You will want an isolating solenoid like those used in RV's to keep the engine battery from being drained by lights and such in the "house", but still charging the "house" batteries from the engine. Amazon doesn't seem to carry them, so you'll have to research it elsewhere. In essence, the solenoid usually runs from the Aux circuit, when you're in the running or auxiliary position on the key the solenoid connects the batteries, but not when you're in the off or ignition position. It gets a little more complicated if you don't want it to connect them in the Aux position, but it can be done (you have to find a circuit that is live when the key is on Run, but not Off, Aux, or Ign, and make sure it can drive the solenoid safely).

Have a 'KAPAXEN' quick battery charger; indeed AC; so you can charge 2th or more battery without the HX-WA03.

Yes, the charger has some guides for the battery so that you can charge a battery without it being attached to the radio.

Yes you can. As stated in my other responses, I used mine for all situations, from cell charger to running power strips to power my house. A separate battery charger is ideal, bc then the charger is mobile, not stuck with the vehicle. I would recommend the Die Hard Branded one from a local auto parts store, roughly $50, it will do AGM(deep cycle batteries), trickle charge and conventional batteries.

Yes that is a problem on the first charge ! I used a 1.2 V battery tender for the first charge. You better invest in a smart charger, they are around 30.00. When you are not using the vehicle, plug in the charger. The battery will last a lot longer.............................................johan`

i understand battery charger should not be wired to the battery while the vehicle is in use. good luck.

You can disconnect the battery to turn it off. To charge the battery, connect it to an USB port (with the USB cable provided )

There is no internal battery option. Household AC or external DC (12V) or AC power converter pushing 1 A.

You have to ensure the internal battery is charged or ensure that you have a good connection to the vehicle power source. If you have the USB connector you can charge it that way, although I never have been able to operate solely on the battery for any length of time.

You don't. You put the charger clamps onto the 12 volt marine/RV battery to charge it up. Once the battery is charged, then you connect the battery to the motor.
