Kastar NP-FM50 Battery and AC Wall Charger

The Kastar NP-FM50 kit supplies a 17 Wh lithium-ion battery and a matching AC wall charger. The battery delivers 7.4 V and 2300 mAh capacity for compatible Sony cameras and camcorders. The charger accepts 100 to 240 V input and features a foldable flat plug for compact storage. A red LED shows charging and a green LED signals standby or full charge.

Suits owners of listed Sony models needing a spare

This set fits the extensive range of Sony batteries and cameras detailed in the compatibility list, including Handycam, Cyber-shot and DCR series devices. It is not for users whose equipment requires a different battery form factor or voltage. It is also not for buyers who need a multi-bay charger or a car charging adapter.

17 Wh capacity decides runtime per charge

The 17 Wh rating determines how long the battery can power a compatible device before recharging. The charger outputs 8.4 V at 600 mA to replenish the cell. Match this capacity to your shooting demands to confirm the kit meets your needs.

Questions about this item

How do I install the Kastar NP-FM50 battery in my Sony camcorder and what step is often missed?

Slide the battery into the compartment until the latch clicks; the step many miss is ensuring the foldable flat plug on the charger is fully extended before plugging into AC 100~240V 50~60Hz.

What maintenance or replacement will the NP-FM50 battery need over time?

The 17 Wh lithium-ion cell will gradually lose capacity; expect to replace the battery when run time drops below your needs, and keep the charger's LED indicator clean for accurate red and green status.

What limit appears first during sustained use of the charger?

The charger outputs DC 8.4V 600mA, so extended charging sessions are limited by that current rate; the battery's 2300mAh capacity means a full charge takes several hours.
