I bought one of those 35 dollar batteries off ebay after seeing some posts about them working fine for other members here. So long story short I bought it and now when it comes time to pop it in I worry about messing up my cam. I was wondering what other people have to say about them, good or bad experiences?
 
I was thinking about buying some of those batteries too. I think you can get a deal that is like 26£ for two batteries. I was also wondering if these batteries are allright? Probably not the best but they would suit regular purposes I guess.
 
I've purchased them before. They last about as long as the battery that's included with your camera. I'm pretty sure they're the same battery, just in a bigger casing, to give the appearance of a longer-lasting battery.
 
Don't buy em. I bought a $29.00 battery off ebay from Hong Kong.
I works, but the connection is loose and the battery falls right off if you turn the camers sideways. I then got the DVXuser batteries and all is well.
 
Hey
I have 2 dvxuser batteries and one I got off of ebay. I use the one I got off of ebay all the time without a problem. No loose connection and it lasts just as long as the others. Actually one of my DVXuser batteries doesnt hold a full charge anymore.

I know i'm just the little fish in the big pond but, i bought a Lenmar batt from Studio 1 productions and it has been awesome. 54.99 US. You can't go wrong. I thought about the DVX batts but a user told me to steer clear, whoops don't ban me !
 
Not only that, but my ebay battery seems to just die out of the blue, even when It shows that it's fully charged.

I'll go another route when I buy another replacement battery.
 
DVXuser batteries for the win!
i have two of them and they really do last me at leasat 5 hours on my DVC30, as promised.
