Hey, I'm glad you found the infamous "Computa Pranksta". That's awesome! I hope you enjoy it. It's far from a perfect product but it does the job most of the time.
As for the charge adapter, here is a preliminary listing on Amazon. https://www.amazon.com/eRCaGuy-Electric-Skateboard-Charger-Adapter/dp/B07KNN9PZZ/ref=olp_product_details?_encoding=UTF8&me=. If you'd like one, I'm currently selling the kits (you must solder it together yourself) for $25 with free shipping, or $35 for the pre-assembled version. You'd have to do the purchase direct through me over PayPal. You could do a PayPal "donation" to me here (https://www.electricrcaircraftguy.com/2016/01/contribute.html) for the right amount and make sure your address is correct and all, and make a note what it's for, and I'll mail it out. I only ship once a week though, and this product is guess what?--also not perfect.
I only have 1 pre-assembled version in stock right now, but quite a few kit versions. I'm in the process of a re-design but don't know when it will be complete. The current version as shown on Amazon requires a 4" jumper wire on the back due to a missing trace (done for your on the pre-assembled version of course), and if you use two chargers at once can get pretty smoking hot: way too hot to touch, but still within operating limits of the components. If you think this is for you feel free to make an order. Here's a couple photos: https://photos.app.goo.gl/ob95f5xUcx1QkubB6.
Also, for anyone assembling your own: I have a 30 minute video showing me doing the entire assembly process that I can put on YouTube. It's an unedited video as that's not a skill I have yet (video editing), but it's better than nothing.
