How to charge EN EL-15 external charger for Nikon D7000 digital camera?

I'm having a hell of a time trying to figure this out. I'm loaning a camera from my college for the photography class I'm in the camera is a Nikon D7000 with 55-200 mm lens. Since I'm loaning it, it didn't come with a freaking manual. It also came with an external battery thing that locks onto the bottom of the camera. It's supposed to be able to come out & you plug it into the wall to charge the battery & put it back in. But the problem is it's supposed to only take 2 hours to charge & the light becomes solid. I plugged it in before I went to bed last night & it was still blinking this morning. I slept for longer than 2 hours. Is something wrong with it? Please help! If a picture is needed so you can see what mine looks like I will supply one. I just need help with this.

Help with camera SD card issue!

I have a 1 GB SD card for my old Nikon D50 camera. For some reason, every time I import my photos onto my laptop and put the SD card back in the camera, the number of photos I can take goes down. It used to hold 250+ photos and now it can only hold 89. What is the problem?

Should i upgrade to the D850?

I Already own the Nikon D750, and although I love the camera I'm very intrigued by the upgrades of the new D850.

A lot of times we photographers just want new "toys" whether we need them or not, so I'm asking…

Would even a great photographer notice a difference in image quality or performance going from the 750 to the 850?

Would you upgrade?

Is it worth buying the Canon T5i for $599?

I've been interested in purchasing my first DSLR camera. I didn't want to start off with an entry-level camera which was why I chose this camera, also because it's a good deal. It's usually $929 in Canada, the features and image quality on this thing look pretty good. The only thing I don't like about it is that it's 18 megapixels and doesn't include wifi or bluetooth. I was also considering the Nikon D5300 which is 24 megapixels and includes wifi and bluetooth, but it's an extra $200. Other cameras I've considered were the Nikon D3400, D5600 and the Canon T7i. Professional photographers please help, thanks!
