Replacement Li-Ion Battery for Sony Camcorders

The Kastar NP-FV50 is a 7.2 V lithium-ion cell rated at 1550 mAh and 11.16 Wh. It replaces Sony NP-FV30, NP-FV50, NP-FV70 and NP-FV100 packs in a long list of Handycam and FDR models. The single-unit pack targets owners who need a fresh spare or a direct replacement for an ageing original.

Fits Existing Chargers and Camera Bays

The battery slides into the same compartment as the factory pack and charges on Sony BC-TRV, BC-VH1 or AC-VQH10 chargers without adapters. Built-in protection guards against over-charge, over-discharge, over-voltage, over-current and over-heating, so the cell can stay in the charger or camera between shoots.

Upgrades From Lower-Capacity Packs

Users moving up from an NP-FV30 or a depleted original gain noticeably longer recording time per charge. The jump is worthwhile when extended sessions or cold-weather shoots demand more capacity than the smaller pack delivers. Buyers needing multiple spares for multi-camera rigs should order additional units.

Questions about this item

How long will the 1550mAh cell last before voltage drops under continuous recording?

The 11.16 Wh lithium-ion pack delivers 1550mAh at 7.2 V; run time depends on the camcorder's power draw, so sustained recording time varies by model and settings.

Does the battery get hot or make noise during all-day shooting?

The cell has built-in over-heating protection and no moving parts, so it runs silently; temperature rise depends on the camera's internal airflow and ambient conditions.

Which charger do I need to recharge this NP-FV50 pack?

It charges on Sony BC-TRV, BC-VH1 or AC-VQH10 chargers, and works with any camcorder that accepts Sony NP-FV30, NP-FV50, NP-FV70 or NP-FV100 batteries.
