Customer Reviews
Quality replacement
I wasn't too sure about this particular brand battery since there were no reviews for it, but I decided to give them a try and see what I ended up with. First they look and feel (weight wise) exactly the same as the Nikon batteries. The only difference is the labeling. Even the color is exactly the same. I have shot a large number of pictures with my D200 since and have seen virtually the same performance out of these as my Nikon batteries, maybe even a little longer lasting if you want to be nit picky. Maybe they wont last as long, but time will tell. Just remember with lith ion batteries re-charging is best done early and often. If you do that your batteries will last you a good long time. I can't vouch for other Nikon camera models, but these DO work in the D200. I hope this helps out some of you out there wanting to save a little money on your batteries like me. Good luck and keep shooting!!!
Didn't work with my D90 and didn't look like the advertised battery
Like several other folks that purchased this battery for their D90, it didn't work for me either. I am guessing that it is either the camera firmware that is preventing it from being recognized, or the battery is somehow different than advertised. The actual color of my arriving battery was plain grey, not gold like show in the product picture via Amazon. Also please note that these non-Nikon batteries don't have the little golden microchip that communicates with the Nikon camera on battery information. Perhaps that is why it doesn't work on mine???? I am returning for a refund and sticking with Nikon branded batteries from now on.
Same as Nikon
I got this so I would have an extra battery for my Nikon D90. It looks and feels just like the Nikon battery; just a different color and lower price (and I did get a cover with mine). I used it after I charged it up overnight in the Nikon charger and it took over 400 pictures with an auto-focus, vibration-reduction lens and still had a little power left over. I recharged it and it did not get hot while recharging. I can't say it is better than a Nikon battery, but I will say it's just as good. Shipping was quick and the packaging was adequate. I can recommend this battery.
