I have a Canon EOS 1200D, which uses LP-E10 batteries. I was wondering if anyone knows of a cable/adapter that can give the camera a continuous power supply from the wall, as I use it for live streaming a bit, and having it on battery for that when it is stationary is rather annoying.

How can I power the 1200D from mains (wall) power (not USB), rather than from batteries?

After a lot of searching, I found the DR-E10 DC Coupler on the Canon website. Clearly when I was originally searching I was using the wrong key terms in my searches on google.

More searching then revealed that that adapter doesn't have the AC cord with it, so a better option would be the Canon ACK-E10 Adaptor (not on Canon UK store, so found on Amazon | Was listed on the Canon US site for the Rebel T5 aka the 1200D)
