Duracell 2 3A Lithium Battery

I have had horrible experiences with Duracell batteries in the past few years. Brand new batteries leaked in a Leica motor drive. I spent hours cleaning the contacts. I am switching over to lithium AAs and Panasonic NIMH rechargeables for all devices. Price is good for the twelve back of Energizer lithium AAs.

This lithium battery is very reliable.

A+!!! I LOVE IT B&H!! 3

I use nothing but DURACELL if you want the best then get the best DURACELL your #1 with me there is no better!

One of the Q&A’s says the Bescor BLS50AC dummy battery adapter kit is not compatible with the Olympus E-PL9.  I asked Bescor ( answers@bescor.com ) why the kit is compatible with the Olympus OM-D E-M5/M10, but not the Olympus Pen E PL9, since all three use the same Olympus BLS-50 battery.   The response was: “It will work. Your camera just needs to be added to our list.” The Bescor is 8V 3A. The Olympus battery is 7.2V 1175 mAh (1.175A).  I did some online research to see if a device built for 7.2V could operate at 8V.  One person describing himself as an engineer posted that 7.4V Lithium batteries actually span a 6V to 8.4v voltage range depending on state of charge of the battery.  Another “senior electrical engineer” said that because all devices are designed with some voltage tolerance value, a 7.4 volt device means 7.4 volt +/- 1 to 1.5 volts.  Still other posts indicated that you can use a 3A power adapter on a 1.5A device.  By logical extension, I figured (I don’t actually know) that since the PL9 uses a 7.2 volt battery, it is probably designed to also work at 8 volts, and is also okay running at 3A. Based on the response from Bescor and the Internet voltage and amperage responses, I decided to purchase the Bescor and use it with my PL9.  I haven’t seen any sign of overheating or other problems with this setup so far, but will update this review if that changes. I did not deduct points for the need to leave the battery compartment open because I knew that would be the case when I bought it.

This manual flash has everything I need and especially like the lithium battery. just bought a second unit.

Long lasting Lithium battery makes it cost effective.

Lithium without the need to recharge. Excellent long-life battery.

I bought one, have to buy another, great sony lithium battery.

The Watson Lithium Battery is a great backup for a Nikon battery. It lasts as long and makes a great back up for a Nikon battery.
