Replacement Battery for Sony Camcorders

This Kastar lithium-ion cell replaces the NP-FM50 and NP-FM55H packs used in many Sony Handycam and Cyber-shot models. It delivers 7.4 volts and 2300 mAh of capacity for extended shooting sessions. The pack is sold as a single unit and is brand new.

17 Wh Capacity Decides Runtime

The energy rating of 17 Wh determines how long the camera can record or stay on standby before a recharge is needed. Built-in protection circuits guard against over-charge, over-discharge, over-voltage, over-current and over-heating. The cell chemistry is lithium-ion.

Fits Existing Chargers and Camera Bays

The battery slides into the same compartment as the original Sony packs and charges on BC-VM50, BC-VM10 or BC-V615 chargers. No adapter or firmware update is required. It frees the user from carrying multiple lower-capacity spares.

Questions about this item

How long will the 2300mAh rating actually power my camcorder?

The 2300mAh capacity at 7.4V gives 17 Wh of energy, so run time depends on the camera's power draw; a typical camcorder drawing 5 W would run for roughly three hours.

Does the 7.4V output match the original Sony InfoLITHIUM interface?

Yes, the battery uses the same 7.4V lithium-ion interface as the Sony NP-FM50 and NP-FM55H packs it replaces, so the camera's fuel gauge and charging logic work normally.

Will the 3×2×1 inch size fit my DCR-TRV10 handycam battery compartment?

The pack measures 3 by 2 by 1 inches, matching the form factor of the original NP-FM50/NP-FM55H batteries used in the DCR-TRV10 and listed compatible models.
