Kastar NP-FV50 1550 mAh replacement battery

This Kastar lithium-ion pack replaces Sony NP-FV30, NP-FV40, NP-FV50, NP-FV70, NP-FV70A, NP-FV90 and NP-FV100 batteries. It fits a wide range of Sony Handycam and Action Cam models including the HDR-CX, HDR-PJ, FDR-AX and DEV series. The single-cell unit delivers 7.2 V and 1550 mAh capacity for extended recording sessions.

Built-in protection circuit manages heat and current

The battery includes over-charge, over-discharge, over-voltage, over-current and over-heating safeguards that meet UL1642 and CE standards. These circuits limit power draw and prevent thermal stress during normal camcorder operation. No active cooling or fan is required because the protection logic regulates current internally.

Works with Sony BC-TRV, BC-VH1 and AC-VQH10 chargers

The pack charges on the original Sony travel and desktop chargers listed in the compatibility data. No proprietary cable, firmware utility or additional adapter is bundled. The protection circuitry ensures safe cycling on those chargers without extra software steps.

Questions about this item

How do I install the NP-FV50 battery and what step do people get wrong?

Slide the pack into the camera’s battery compartment until the latch clicks, making sure the three gold contacts face the camera body; the common mistake is inserting it backwards so the contacts miss the terminals.

What maintenance or replacement will the NP-FV50 need later?

The lithium-ion pack has built-in over-charge, over-discharge, over-voltage, over-current and over-heating protection, so no user maintenance is required; replace the battery when run-time becomes unacceptably short.

What limit shows up first under sustained use?

The 7.2 V, 1550 mAh cell delivers 11.16 Wh; during long recordings the voltage sag from internal resistance is the first limit, causing the camera to shut down once the pack voltage drops below the camcorder’s minimum operating threshold.
