It is best to check with Uniden or the manufacturer of your device to see if they have any official replacement chargers for the BC296D scanner. If not, you can also try searching for compatible chargers from third-party manufacturers that are designed to work with the device. Be sure to check the voltage and amperage requirements of your device to ensure the replacement charger is compatible.
