Will you warrantee againstLumix ZS40 camera damage from 3.7 volts vs. 3.6 volts?

I have been using these for a year with no problems on my ZS40. In fact they last for more pictures than the Panosonic batteries which are chargeable in the same charger.

I've had no problems with my batteries. Granted I've only had it for two months, but with one year old twins, we shot video and pics a lot. The camera treats all three (two from this company and one OEM) the same.

i dont about the trigger voltage on novatrons but it will fry your camera if its more then 6volts. Most old studio stobes put out alot 100-400volts. but if your using a radio slave like a pocket wizard you should be fine. also i've noticed it only wants to play nice if there's also a flash on the hot shoe. i use mine on a t1i with a on camera flash via a bracket and seems to work ok that way

Yes 3.7v Identical to the one that came in camera and works just as good. In-fact I don't know which is which now.

Sorry. I can't answer that; my camera has never given me reason to send it in for repair...

Apparently yes. They told me that it is the same as the firmware fix that they came out with in July(?). That DID NOT fix the battery warning light problem. I don't believe that they are planning to do anything more. (They'll fix it in the next incarnation of this camera [sx290?]) If you don't use video, then no problem. Otherwise, video invokes the problem.

I would only use what the manufacturer suggests. Is it worth ruining a $300 camera when the batteries at Amazon are very inexpensive.

I am told that voltage and current must match. Check camera info and go from there.

I couldn't honestly answer that question. I can only tell you we have not experienced any problems with ours. I would say any battery has the potential to damage your camera.

Let me start by saying that so far, I've only connected this power supply long enough to verify it wasn't DOA. However, I'm an electronic engineering technician by trade, and have done some DC power supply design and prototyping. Generally, whatever voltage the battery or other DC power source provides is further regulated and conditioned before being passed along to more sensitive, delicate circuitry. So putting out 0.4V more, or having a bit of 60Hz ripple is very unlikely to have any effect at all on the camera. Solid state electronics usually operate on 5.v, 3.3V, 2.V, or 1.8V, each with a tolerance of 5% or more. Typical lithium cells seem to be nominally around 3.6V (or 7.2V for two in series). The charging of all lithium cells is carefully managed by elaborate controller chips, so I wouldn't worry.

Ed, I'm not sure- Never tried or looked into it- I bought two batteries and a charger so that when one battery is run down, I just pop the other one in while hte first one is charging again. My feeling is that if you are goign to spend nearly $8,000 on z camera setup, then get the recommended batteries to go with it- they will last longer per charge, and I've noticed that usiung the 1DX in live view mode really drains hte batteries quick, especially if using the timer too- So I like to keep one battery always charged and ready to go

I haven't had any issues that I know of. The nice thing is the camera doesn't really eat battery power anyway, but I always carry the extra one when I'm out. I don't pay attention to which one goes in, and I couldn't tell you a difference. My only suggestion is you ALWAYS take care of your batteries, and they'll last.

I've owned a Cannon PowerShot ELPH 320 HS for over a year. 2 of my three batteries are these 3rd party batteries. I've used the camera and all the batteries heavily for the past year, and I've noticed no adverse effects at all. You do want a total of three charged batteries ( and spare charger) to cover your power for vacations and family events. With only one you will run out. Having said that; my general advice is: always check the reviews on any 3rd party product, and be certain that the majority of the feedback is positive. Also make sure that -recent- feedback is positive, so you know that production quality has not slipped over time.

Yes, the CR 2016 3V spec is the same for virtually every brand name. Certainly for Energizer, Panasonic, Duracell, EverReady, and Radio Shack to name a few off the top of my head.Edit: The only time it *might* not be the same is for a generic or off-name brand. I don't generally trust those in my devices anyway due to the fact they don't always follow standard specs like the major brands.

Just as a FYI. I have had a lot of problems with the cameras loosing signa. I'm sure that there is a spec on this from the manufacturer but I would reduce it by 50% as a guideline. If you have a problem with the camera the return policy is pretty bad.... meaning that you pay for shipping. Find another camera supplier.

That may be the answer. I wonder why other items do not seem affected. Does LaserShip (whoever they are?) only ship this camera for Amazon? And how hard could it be for Amazon to change carriers to resume selling and shipping the ZS9?

I don't have any experience with Warrantech. So far my D-Lux6 is excellent. No complaints.

Yes, I have the ZS40 and used it in Europe for the past 5 weeks. It worked fine
