Good place to get replacment battery?
I want to get a spare battery for my Casio compact camera. Where can I
get a half-decent NP-20 battery at a reasonable price? For example, Play.com does an Inov8 replacement battery for £8.99 inc delivery. 7dayshop sells a replacement battery for £4.49 delivered. Are these good value or are they just cheap batteries that have much less capacity than the original? play.com NP-20: http://preview.tinyurl.com/nxodn8 7dayshop.com NP-20: http://preview.tinyurl.com/n8d753 |

We use a cheap replacement in our Canon Ixus and can't tell any difference from the original. -- Geoff Berrow It's only Usenet, no one dies. My opinions, not the committee's, mine.

I order lots of bit's and bobs from 7day shop inc batteries, memory, replacement caps and small cases. Delivery to the UK is normally less than 5 working days and their own brand stuff is good quality. Mike |

Check the feedback Even feedback isn't reliable - most people leave it after briefly checking the item, it's only after use people realise the battery isn't as good as it should be. that said I bought a battery from Hong Kong - not advertised as genuine, it's not as good as the Sony original but after nearly a year of use I'd rate it as 80-90% of the original Sony in terms of capacity. It even holds the charged unused unlike a lot of cheap alternatives Not bad for £10 vs almost £40 for the sony. |

The capacity of a battery is a key part of its specification and is explicitely listed (e.g. mAh: 630mAh). Therefore the capacity of different batteries is trivial to compare unless we are talking about fraudulent statements. jue |
