This particular shipper took a very long time to ship. so it wasn't much of a savings at all. That's about it. It's a pretty good replacement battery. The final cost with shipping came out the same price that the battery cost in Best Buy. It was an ok experience.
It does what it's supposed to do -- charges, then supplies power to my Cybershot camera. It also shows the minutes of time remaining, which is a nice change from the NPBD1.
You would need a spare when you planning to take more movies since the movie depletes the battery quicker. This has better life than the battery that comes with the camera. As a bonus, this battery also shows how many minutes are remaining.
NOTHING BEATS ORIGINAL STUFF, THIS IS A GREAT BUY, IT SHOWS TIME LEFT, AND EVERYTHING IS AS DESCRIBED.
(Days after a charge I'll click on the camera and find an almost completely charged battery). Both batteries still hold plenty of charge (for me) for a long time. When taking just still pics I've never run out of battery.I guess if I were a pro I'd want more battery - but if I were a pro I'd want more camera too. I got the camera 9 months ago and went ahead and sprung for a spare battery - so far I've NEVER run down a battery in a single day unless I was shooting >30 minutes of movie. For just pics I get 180-200 per charge, and I'm rarely taking more than 100 a day. I keep one battery in the charger pretty much all the time at night, and when I go out expecting to take a LOT of pictures ALL DAY - I'll take both batteries, but I've only had to switch to "back-up battery" once - and that was with filming a concert over an hour long.
