A: Yes they will

Q: 2. What's the differnce between this one and IDX CUE-D150. That one is only $269. Huge price difference?

A: These are the same model of battery with the same power. However the cheaper one has only 1 x d-tap while more expensive one has 2 x d-tap plus a USB. In any event, the cheaper one appears to be about to be replaced by the more expensive version. You might wish to purchase now and save.

Q: 4. Does this come with a charger?

Q: 5. Can this be charged with a VL2000S charger?

A: Im 95% sure it will work. I own the standing version on the VL20005 and I know that it is a smart charger. Here is my reasoning. My URSA and Raven both use V Lock batteries of different sizes. Each of the battery pairs use the same charger. This is actually smart of the manufacturer and streamlines your charging needs.

A: There is a single USB type A port on the battery.

Q: 9. how long does it take to charge, and what is approximate life...say on an ursa mini 4K?
