Digital camera reviews of Sony NP-BG1 Type G Lithium Ion Rechargeable Battery Pack for Sony W Series, T20, T100, N2, N1, H7 & H9 Digital Cameras
Digital camera Review: Great product for a great price!
Summary: 5 Stars
I purchased two of these batteries for my Sony Cybershot and they work really well. I actually replaced an existing older battery that wasn't holding a charge for too long and also ordered a second one as a back up. They are both working great as I am currently putting them both to use on a vacation trip. I am very happy with my purchase and highly recommend this product from this seller.
Cheers!
Digital camera Review: Great product, but why proprietary???
Summary: 4 Stars
As with most Sony products, this battery is very reliable, long-lasting and obviously of high quality.
The only real "stick-point" is that it is proprietary that is unique to only Sony products and then only a very few (perhaps only ONE!) models. That drives the cost of the battery way up relative to other batteries.
I recognize that the Lithium Ion technology is more expensive to begin with, but it would seem quite obvious to me that Sony could come up with a more universal battery for use with more of their product lines thereby reducing costs tremendously.
There are aftermarket versions of this battery (e.g., Everyready), sometimes for much less money. But I have not tried them yet only because the one merchant I found on Amazon had such a good, low price relative to all others I found.
Again, excellent product!
Digital camera Review: Great service
Summary: 5 Stars
The battery arrived right away, was well packed and it was ready to charge that same day. It is great to have a back up battery and this one is so much better than the rechargeable AAs. The price was great, too!Digital camera Review: Great value for money
Summary: 5 Stars
I have purchased this battery (Sony NP-BG1 Type G Lithium Ion Rechargeable Battery) for my Sony camera (Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W290). The seller (VORTEX CABLE) send the item as promised within 4 days. I had paid $28.96 for the battery and the expedited shipping method.
This battery worked great for my family vacation to LA, Las Vegas and Grand Canyon. I used it as spare battery and took numerous photos. I did saw one person exclaiming that his camera battery ran out while in Grand Canyon. By paying a small sum compared to the trip cost, I saved myself from that situation.
Digital camera Review: Held charge better than expected
Summary: 5 Stars
I was warned that the sony camera I purchased would eat batteries. I bought this battery to replace the one that came with the camera. We went sking for 10 days and the battery lasted the whole trip! Worked great!!!
