Uhm, "Use a USB charger"? All of them will work.

Finally, there would be (almost) zero complaints if it was stated upfront: 'Charger not included. 2A micro USB charger (ir whatever) required.'
Except that a 2A charger is not required. A "2A" charger will indeed charge faster, but older chargers will still work just fine.

EDIT: or perhaps not... The newly released User Guide notes that you can recharge a partially-charged battery with any USB charger, but a completely flat battery may need the power of a 2A (or better) charger to be successfully recharged. I stand corrected.
