 Good Alternative to RCA OEM Battery May 13, 2007
7 out of 7 found this review helpful
I used this unit on one screen of the RCA DRC 629N Dual Screen DVD RCA 7" Dual Screen Portable DVD Playerafter finding that the unit did not come with a battery and the battery is impossible to find anywhere except by contacting RCA directly for $99.
I decided to try this out as it claimed to provided the same run time as the RCA battery and it did not disappoint. I noticed on the package that the battery time is dependant on the size of the screen and whatever functions you may be using so I suspect that if I used double screens then the time will be cut in at least half but I did get a solid 2 hours out of it with power to spare with one screen with a single DVD test.
One other thing to pay attention to are the instructions on initial charge:
For the first 3 charges you must charge for 13 hours each time.
This should condition the battery for on going usage as this is NIMH and not Lithium Ion.
Enjoy

I bought it last night, charged it for 16 hours according to the instruction. We tested it with a brand new Polaroid portable DVD, it lasted around 3 hours. We will use it for taking a 25 hours train to Canada. It is very light, slim and portable.
 How can you tell that this is charging? --UPDATE included. February 27, 2008

I just received this unit in the mail and am charging it. However, the round a/c plug doesn't go all the way into the unit. Is this normal? It only goes in about 1/2 way, and since there is no indicator light to show that is charging, I can't tell. The unit doesn't get warm or hot either. Anyone have an answer for me?
I'll write a full review after I figure this charging question out.
UPDATE: All right, I charged this for the required 16 hours initially. After 16 hours, the unit was not hot at all, but barely warm to the touch underneath. I picked the correct plug tip (you get 5 different ones, all conveniently attached to a rubber bar so you won't lose them) for my 10" Phillips DVD player. As the instructions stated, the charge for a 10" screen lasted exactly 1 hour.
So I recharged this unit for 8-10 hours the second time, as per instructions. Then, I plugged it into my Audiovox D1718PK 7" Portable DVD Player (with Bonus Headphones and Car Kit sold here for $99.00 right now) and wrote down the start time at 9:18 am. I watched a movie in medium volume, then I tried the headset, then back to speaker mode. The 2 hour movie ended so I put in another movie. That 1 -1/2 hour movie ended too. Then I put in my kid's dvd and started to fall asleep. Finally, at 1:56 pm, this energizer battery died. That would be 4 - 1/2 hours!
Now granted this long play time is due to the fact that I used it on my 7" dvd player. My 10" dvd player only ran for 1 hour. Anything in between should be 2 - 3 hours, my guess.
I LOVE this round thing! The only thing that I didn't like was the fact that there is no red led indicator light to tell me that it's charging. The unit doesn't get hot so I can't tell that it's charging at all.
Well, I'm trying to change my rating to 4 stars, but it won't let me.
Hope this review helps all of you.

I guess I don't know how good this product is because it is not compatible with my Magnavox DVD player. The description of it "DOES NOT" tell you what portable players it can link to so be careful and check first to see if it will work. I just think it is poor that Amazon does not put the compatible units on the website.
