hmmm, I guess you tried screwing the battery back in? (it would probably just screw the adapter in tighter too.) Dunno... maybe put some super-glue or tarzan grip on the batt thread, screw it in and let it set for a few mins and try to unscrew it again?... or unplug the charger and try turning the adapter with a screw-driver or somthing... there may be an airway groove or something you might be able to catch.
I am guessing it is a small adapter and stuck "inside" the charger?

Is any part of the adaptor protruding out from the charger? If so try gently grabing it with some pliers and turn gently.
If not try to get some small thin long nose pliers and try to stick them (closed) into the round opening of the adaptor then try opening them so as to put a centrifugal force on the inside of the adaptor and then try to turn.
Did you tighten a lot when you put it in?

I tried the plyers, tweezers, rubber tipped pencil - I dont over tighten as this can happen or stripping the threads... 
I was at the point of frustration, but you never know, I could be a dumb blonde...
phew! I was a bit worried about that suggestion, so the next part of the story... were you able to separate the adapter from the batt once removed?
LOL, not yet, may have to be there permanently... Oh well at least I can use the charger again...
I guess Im not meant to have this battery, it was in my shirt pocket last night, I bent down to put the dogs water bowl on the floor after filling it.... and you guessed it, it fell in. Consequently it wouldnt work today, tried charging, nothing doing. So now my fav battery with a glued on adapter had kicked the bucket... RIP
Lol Ive tried with two sets of pliers, my hands arnt strong enough, any suggestions...
lol I used super glue of course...
Maybe I should just change the name of this thread to "Im a problem"

Since the battery is already dead you can soak it in acetone nail polish remover to get the adapter off. Also, paint thinner works too. I used to use it to take off the fake nails,lol
Before you try that though, put the battery in a bowl that you can seal with some uncooked white rice. Leave it overnight. The rice will help draw out any moisture that might be left in it. Try that before you do the acetone thing though to be sure that battery is dead.
Thanks Jules, I was going to leave it a few days before I tried the acetone, rice is a good idea thanks.
You're very welcome. I have actually saved a cell phone doing that after it was dropped in a puddle of water. I hope it works for you!
Good news the rice worked, the bat took a full charge today fingers crossed it will keep working for a while Thanks Jules
Thanks Jules- Status
