“I checked the battery charger, not just the camera body; the charger was the part connecting directly to Venezuela’s 120 V supply.”

Will my camera battery charger work on Venezuela’s power supply?
For Venezuela, verify the exact camera equipment instead of relying on a country-level assumption. Start with the battery charger or USB-C wall adapter, not the camera body. Venezuela supplies 120 V at 60 Hz through A · B outlets. A charger whose INPUT range includes the local supply can handle the electrical side of the trip.
A charger designed only for 220–240 V may be unsuitable on 120 V; camera brands often have multiple charger generations, so verify the exact accessory rather than assuming every charger for the same battery is identical. Across different accommodations in Venezuela, a tested camera power setup is easier to repeat.
Venezuela power: A · B · 120 V · 60 Hz
See the Venezuela power plug guide →Which camera charger plugs need an adapter in Venezuela?
The A · B outlet family answers plug fit for a camera, not whether it accepts 120 V. For plug fit, compare the AC side of every charger in the camera bag with A · B. A detachable wall lead can sometimes be swapped for a local-compatible cable. In Caracas, that may be tidier than adding an adapter behind a bulky two-battery charger.

A hotel-room workaround in Venezuela should not replace checking dedicated charging versus USB-C before departure. USB-C can simplify a Venezuela camera kit when the body supports the required charging mode. It is still worth carrying the dedicated charger if you want one battery charging while another stays in the camera. The right choice depends on the camera’s USB behavior, charging speed and how long you expect to shoot away from the hotel.
How to read a camera charger label for Venezuela
Testing the complete camera setup before Venezuela keeps the travel-power kit simpler. Read the INPUT line for both voltage and frequency. A marking such as 100–240V ~ 50/60Hz includes 120 V / 60 Hz. Photographing the charger label before leaving for also gives you a quick reference if the accessory stays buried in the bag.

Useful between Caracas and for cameras that support the required USB charging mode; it does not replace checking the wall charger against 120 V.

Once avoiding an unnecessary converter is confirmed for Venezuela, extra conversion hardware is easier to avoid. A converter is usually the wrong tool for a modern universal-input camera charger. When the charger already accepts 120 V, a converter does nothing useful. If an old proprietary charger does not, a manufacturer-approved wide-input replacement is often a simpler travel solution than building the photo kit around conversion hardware.
