Kastar NP-FV50 Li-Ion Battery Pack

The Kastar NP-FV50 is a 1550 mAh lithium-ion replacement battery built for Sony Handycam and Alpha camcorders. It fits the NP-FV30, NP-FV50, NP-FV70 and NP-FV100 battery slots and works with BC-TRV, BC-VH1 and AC-VQH10 chargers. Videographers who need a reliable spare for long shoots will find it a direct fit.

Thermal Behaviour and Power Draw

Lithium-ion chemistry runs cool during typical recording sessions and the integrated protection circuit guards against over-charge, over-discharge, over-voltage, over-current and over-heating. No active cooling is required and the cell maintains stable 7.2 V output through the discharge cycle. Normal use stays within safe temperature limits without audible noise.

Upgrade Path and Compatibility

This pack replaces ageing Sony NP-FV series cells that no longer hold a full charge. It restores original run-time for models such as the HDR-CX series, FDR-AX series and PXW-X70 without firmware changes. The jump is worth it when your current battery cuts recording short or shows swelling. It does not add capacity beyond the 1550 mAh rating, so users needing significantly longer single-battery runs should look at higher-capacity alternatives.

Questions about this item

How do I install the NP-FV50 battery and what step is often missed?

Slide the battery into the camera compartment until the latch clicks; the step often missed is confirming the latch fully engages so the battery cannot shift during use.

What maintenance or replacement will this 1550mAh Li-Ion pack need later?

Recharge before storage and top up every few months; replace the pack when run time falls below your needs, as Li-Ion cells gradually lose capacity over hundreds of cycles.

What limit appears first during sustained recording with this 7.2V 11.16Wh battery?

Continuous high-drain recording will hit the pack's thermal protection first, causing the camera to shut down until the battery cools.
