Two-pack replacement batteries

This kit supplies two lithium-ion cells rated at 2400 mAh and 7.4 V, together with a single AC wall charger. It is designed for photographers who use Sony DSLR and SLT bodies that accept the NP-FM500H form factor. The bundle suits users who want spare power for extended shooting sessions without relying on original Sony packs.

Foldable-plug charger with LED status

The included charger operates from 100 to 240 V AC and delivers 8.4 V at 600 mA to each battery. Its foldable flat pins reduce bulk when packed, and a red LED shows charging while a green LED signals standby or full charge. This combination lets photographers replenish both cells sequentially from any standard mains outlet worldwide.

Limited to NP-FM500H-compatible cameras

The cells and charger only work with cameras that accept the NP-FM500H battery, such as the Alpha 57, Alpha 58, Alpha 65, Alpha 68 and Alpha 77 series. They cannot power models that require a different battery form factor or a higher voltage input. Buyers who need power for newer E-mount bodies or for cameras using NP-FZ100 cells must look elsewhere.

Questions about this item

How long do the 2400 mAh NP-FM500H cells last before they need replacing?

Lithium-ion packs of this capacity typically deliver several hundred full charge cycles before capacity drops noticeably; storing them at about half charge and avoiding deep discharge extends that lifespan.

What limits continuous shooting when the charger runs off 100–240 V AC all day?

The wall adapter outputs 8.4 V at 600 mA, so two depleted 2400 mAh batteries need roughly four hours each to reach the green-LED full-charge state.

Does the foldable-plug charger get hot or noisy during extended use?

The unit has no fan; it relies on passive cooling, so it stays silent and only warm to the touch while the red charging LED is lit.
