Replacement Li-Ion Battery for Sony Handycam

The Kastar NP-FM50 / NP-FM55H is a 7.4V 2300mAh lithium-ion power cell built to replace original Sony batteries in a wide range of Handycam and Cyber-shot models. It suits owners of older camcorders who need a reliable new pack for continued shooting.

Voltage and Capacity Define the Practical Limit

The 7.4V output and 2300mAh rating fix the energy available per charge; run time scales directly with the camera's draw. The pack fits only devices designed for the NP-FM50/55H form factor and 7.4V nominal voltage, so it cannot power units requiring different voltages or physical shapes.

Upgrades from Lower-Capacity NP-FM30

Users moving up from the 10 11 12 lower-capacity NP-FM30 or standard NP-FM50 cells gain longer recording sessions per charge. The jump is worth it when extended shooting without swapping batteries matters, but it does not help cameras that need a higher-voltage pack or a different connector.
