Kastar BN-VC296G Two-Pack 7.4V 10500mAh Battery

This twin pack of Kastar lithium-ion cells replaces the JVC BN-VC296G and BN-VC264G batteries. Each unit delivers 7.4 volts and 10500 milliampere-hours of capacity for compatible camcorders. The bundle suits videographers who want a ready spare without waiting for a single cell to recharge. Built-in protection circuits guard against over-charge, over-discharge, over-voltage, over-current and over-heating.

Videographers Using JVC GY-HC500 or GY-HC550 Series

The batteries fit JVC GY-HC500, GY-HC500E, GY-HC500U, GY-HC500UN, GY-HC500SPC, GY-HC500SPCN, GY-HC550, GY-HC550E and GY-HC550UN camcorders. They also work with JVC AA-VC20, AA-VC20E and AA-VC20U chargers. Operators needing power for other camera brands or for models not listed above should look at different replacements. The pack is not intended for devices requiring a different voltage or physical form factor.

10500mAh Capacity at 7.4 Volts

The headline figure is 10500 milliampere-hours at 7.4 volts per cell, giving extended recording time compared with lower-capacity alternatives. This capacity decides whether the pack meets the runtime demands of a full shoot day. Buyers should confirm that their camcorder and charger appear in the compatibility lists before purchasing.

Questions about this item

How long will the 10500 mAh rating actually run my GY-HC500 camcorder?

The 10500 mAh capacity at 7.4 V delivers roughly 77.7 Wh, so a GY-HC500 drawing 20 W would run for about 3.8 hours on one battery; actual time varies with recording mode and LCD use.

Can I charge these BN-VC296G packs on my existing AA-VC20E charger?

Yes, the BN-VC296G is listed as compatible with the JVC AA-VC20, AA-VC20E and AA-VC20U chargers, so your AA-VC20E will charge them normally.

Will the 3 by 2 by 2 inch size fit inside the battery compartment of a GY-HC550?

The pack measures 3 by 2 by 2 inches and is specified as a direct replacement for the JVC BN-VC296G used in the GY-HC550 series, so it fits the original compartment.
