Hey all-
I bought some 3200mAh batteries on ebay a while ago. they dont seem to be holding a charge as long as they used to. Generally, how long can you expect these batteries to last? I intend to buy some of the DVXuser.com batteries, but what is the life expectancy of most of these batts?

DVXuser.com 5000mah 5 hours 33 minutes
Panasonic Default 1600 mah 1 hour 40 minutes

so 3200mah thats like 3 hours 20 min
If you got them from ebay they wont last long
 
I think he meant how long do they last as in year's or charging cycles, I myself have no Idea but have had the batteries off this site and they still hold a perfect charge a year later. I think the average ( don't quote me, cause I'm really not sure) is probably around a few hundred charges? but you should be able to google to find something more concrete
 
Are you sure?, I thought they were memory free and didn't matter? I mean usually before a big shoot I'll drain those bad boy's dry, but for everyday use, I don't really care if it's sitting at 25% when I toss it on the charger.
