yeah.....the one i was using lasted about an hour......i was kinda pissed, suckers are $100 to buy a spare

 

the sony big battery lasts like 475 minutes of recording time

 

get the sony man .... you are probably using a fujitsui or some sh*t ... and if you are using a sony, your battery hasn't been used/charged very well. the $100 battery I got last for like 8-9 hours .... try using the battery until it's dead, and then charging it up completely --- helps the battery continue to get a full charge

 

Yea mine is that much. You can record footage for so long. rewind and play it over and over. You can't do that with the regular battery that comes with it. too bad its like $120.00

 

the camera im usein is the ****** Optura10....im def gettin sony trv70 or 80.....but ****** was a stock battery.....thing didnt take long to charge.....but it wore down way too fast ....i didnt know if it was normal for these cameras or what....thanks for the tips

 

you cant say C a n n o n on here or what?? ****** ******

 

canon

 

alright ...even though i cant spell canon....i did manage to kill the camera......i filmed till it was absolutly dead, popped the tape out and started recording on another camera. then when i got home i was gonna watch it on the first camera so i plugged it into the wall so it would have juice, put the tape in and nothing. those were its dieing words. "i eat your tape".... so now i cant get my tape out. What are the chances i have a bad battery....or even a bad recharging cord???? the camera wont do a single thing, not even look useful.

 

Can someone give me a link to one of those battaries you guys are talking about

 

It depends on what type of camera you have, but heres one for a ******. They are all pretty much the same price, and are the same Lithium-Ion Rechargeable battery.
