 Backup Battery August 26, 2006
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
This battery was ordered as a backup to the one which came with my new Sony digital camera. The first battery (just like this one) is doing so well that I am sure the quality of the battery is great. I looked long and hard in stores in my area for a duplicate battery and then looked at amazon.com. They had the battery and sent it right away. Good battery...good service from amazon! What more can one ask?
Sony NP-BG1 Type G InfoLithium Rechargeable Battery Pack DSC-N1 Digital Camera March 9, 2007
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
Had it for over a year. Lasts really long. I use it with sony dsc-w100. I have a spare which I never(!) had to use. I mean one battery lasted always more than what I needed for one day of shooting/filming.
EDIT_1: If used for taking many pictures with long exposure, at night for example, than it would drain a lot faster. But... I think that is due to the camera mechanism...
 Great product, but why proprietary??? January 9, 2007

As with most Sony products, this battery is very reliable, long-lasting and obviously of high quality.
The only real "stick-point" is that it is proprietary that is unique to only Sony products and then only a very few (perhaps only ONE!) models. That drives the cost of the battery way up relative to other batteries.
I recognize that the Lithium Ion technology is more expensive to begin with, but it would seem quite obvious to me that Sony could come up with a more universal battery for use with more of their product lines thereby reducing costs tremendously.
There are aftermarket versions of this battery (e.g., Everyready), sometimes for much less money. But I have not tried them yet only because the one merchant I found on Amazon had such a good, low price relative to all others I found.
Again, excellent product!
Sony Battery and Amazon May 14, 2007

I recently ordered a backup battery from Amazon for my Sony camera. The battery works well and is just what I needed. The service I received from Amazon was its usual - outstanding. The price was much better than anywhere else on the web and the shipping was fast. I only wish Sony would have used the same shipping for my camera. I hope that Amazon will never go to using FedEx Smart Post. If that happens, I will be hesitant to buy.
Excellent. Fast delivery, got what I bought. May 14, 2007
