Replacement battery for Sony camcorders

This Kastar lithium-ion pack replaces the Sony NP-FM50 and NP-FM55H cells. It fits a long list of Handycam, Cyber-shot and DSLR-A100 models as well as the HVL-ML20M video light. The 7.4 V chemistry delivers 2300 mAh and 17 Wh in a single-battery pack.

Thermal behaviour and power draw

Lithium-ion cells run cool during normal recording and playback. No active cooling is required and the pack adds no audible noise. Built-in protection circuits guard against over-charge, over-discharge, over-voltage, over-current and over-heating.

Capacity decides runtime

At 2300 mAh the pack stores 17 Wh, which determines how long your camera runs between charges. Buyers who need more storage for all-day shoots should look for higher-capacity alternatives.

Questions about this item

How do I install the NP-FM50 NP-FM55H battery in my Sony camcorder, and what step do people often get wrong?

Slide the battery onto the camera's mount until the latch clicks; the common mistake is stopping before the latch fully engages, which leaves the battery loose and unpowered.

What maintenance will this 2300mAh lithium-ion battery need later?

Store it at roughly half charge in a cool, dry place if unused for weeks; recharge every three months to prevent deep discharge and keep the protection circuit active.

What limit appears first during continuous recording with this 17 Wh pack?

The 2300mAh capacity determines runtime; sustained high-drain recording will deplete the charge before any thermal or voltage protection triggers.
