Four-Pack Li-Ion Replacement Cells

This set contains four Kastar NP-FV50 lithium-ion batteries rated at 7.2 V and 1550 mAh each, giving 11.16 Wh per cell. They are built as direct replacements for Sony NP-FV30, NP-FV50, NP-FV70 and NP-FV100 packs. Videographers and event shooters who need several spares for long shooting days will find the quantity convenient. The cells are new and include over-charge, over-discharge, over-voltage, over-current and over-heating protection circuits.

Capacity per Cell

Each battery delivers 1550 mAh at 7.2 V, which is the single figure that determines run-time in compatible Handycam, NEX-VG and FDR-AX models. If your workflow demands more energy per pack, this capacity may fall short and you would need higher-capacity alternatives. The 11.16 Wh rating also stays within typical air-travel limits for carry-on spares.

Drop-In Installation

The packs share the exact form factor and contact layout of the original Sony NP-FV series, so they slide into the camera or the Sony BC-TRV, BC-VH1 and AC-VQH10 chargers without adapters. No firmware update or menu setting is required. The only common issue is forgetting to fully charge all four cells before a multi-camera shoot, which can leave one unit depleted early.

Questions about this item

How long will the 1550mAh capacity actually run my camcorder?

The 1550mAh lithium-ion cells deliver 11.16 Wh each, giving noticeably longer recording sessions than lower-capacity NP-FV packs on compatible Sony Handycam and NXCAM models.

What charging standard do these batteries use and what does it limit?

They charge on Sony BC-TRV, BC-VH1 and AC-VQH10 chargers using the original NP-FV interface, so charge speed and safety are governed by the camera or charger you already own.

Will the 3 by 2 by 3 inch size fit my Sony HDR-CX series handycam?

Each battery matches the NP-FV50 form factor, so it slides directly into the battery compartment of every listed Sony camcorder including the HDR-CX and FDR-AX ranges.
