What this battery replaces
The Kastar BP-208 is a 7.4V 1300mAh lithium-ion pack rated at 9.62Wh.

Installation and common issues
The pack slides into the camera’s battery compartment and clicks into place; no tools are required. Built-in protection guards against over-charge, over-discharge, over-voltage, over-current and over-heating. The most frequent issue is inserting the battery the wrong way round, which prevents the latch from engaging. A dirty contact strip on either the battery or the camera can also stop the camcorder from powering on.
What to verify before ordering
Confirm that your camcorder model appears in the compatibility list above. Check that the original battery you are replacing is marked BP-208, BP-208DG, BP-308, BP-310 or BP-315. Ensure the camera’s battery contacts are clean and undamaged. This is a single-cell 7.4V pack; it is not suitable for cameras that require a different voltage or a multi-cell configuration.
