I've brought these batteries and they read 8V with a multimeter! I don't think this is safe for the camera.. any comments?

These are lithium ion batteries. The nominal operating voltage is 7.4v, after they are partially discharged. Freshly charged the voltage can be as high as 8.4 volts.

I've never bothered to check the battery voltage as my Fuji HS50EXR has functioned fine with them.

Wasabi batteries have been so good that when I order back-up batteries, I always look for Wasabi. My cameras that use them include Fuji, Canon, OlympusThey last at least as long as the O.E.M≥ batteries and I never have had a problem.

I checked and the batteries I recently purchased were 1250mAh. The original Nikon battery is an 1100mAh battery. I am not sure what effect the higher current rating will have. I have used the two replacement batteries and so far I have noted no issues, but long term???. Thanks for bringing this to my attention; I do not know how I overlooked such an obvious difference.

Purchased 2 of these batteries for my Nikon 1V1 (It said they would be compatible with my camera). However, my camera rejected them (I am paraphrasing here but it indicated I should install the proper batteries for my camera.) I purchased a couple of Wasabi Power batteries for Nikon En-El15 and the first thing I did was test them in my camera. The camera accepted each one without a problem. They just arrived a couple of days ago and I have a fully charged battery in my camera already so I don't know the battery life of these batteries yet.

I have ordered several of these batteries with no issues... I suggest you send it back and get a different one.

Batteries are specifically made for only certain models of Cameras. Are you sure they were the recommended battery model for the camera you were using? I now have 5 of them and use them in my Nikon Coolpix P520 with no problems........ Think you should check with the camera manufacturer and find out the proper battery to use......

How did you try to measure 24 volts? If you used 2 twelve volt batteries in series make sure they were connected one + lead to the other - lead. Or try to measure 3 nine volt batteries snapped together. You should get 27 volts. I think there is a calibration pot on the back of the meter. It is very small and you will need a jewelers screwdriver to adjust it. Make sure the red lead goes to the + termingal of the battery. Try again and let me know. You could have a bad batch of meters. Mine worked very will on my power supply that goes up to 27 volts. One last thing...are the 24 volt batteries you are measuring good batteries? The meter might be telling you that they are not. Hope this was useful. Also be aware that all meters have a percentage of error. Some are + - .1% + - .01%. No matter how expensive the meter it will have error tho very small. The smaller the error, the larger the price. These cheap but beautiful meters are good enough for battery monitoring. I wouldnt use them to build a computer power supply.

I put these batts . in a handheld scanner...was way overkill on mAh...like on your lights. But have been doing great, just hold a chg. 'alot' longer. The important part is ...it's still 1.2V. Hope this helps ya ☺Have been in and working for about 6months or so. The $'s were right for sure.

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.

My camera uses double AA batteries, I have not experienced any issues like yours.

I used AA battery in each of the three that I bought. All worked. Check the polarity. Positive in first. If that is correct, then I think you got a bad one.

I have no idea what you are talking about. I have a security camera system at my farm and this type of battery goes in it. It was dying so I finally found the identical battery on Amazon to replace the dying one.

I got the same message, but it also says it's due to high temperature around the camera. I've only had mine for a week so far, so I'm not sure if it's a problem with the battery pack or something else. Worse case scenario, we can always substitute the battery pack with traditional AA batteries.

I have to believe that the manufacturer would claim that the battery was decoded if that were the case. If you are shooting mostly video and particularly long video segments this may not be the best choice. But if you shoot mostly photos it really doesn't matter if its decoded. When the battery runs dry stick in the next one. Even shooting video. After awhile you get a feel for battery length. I've never lost any footage. For the difference in price I've found these batteries to be a good value.

If you're asking whether the high voltage could possibly destroy/damage your camera, why take the risk using a non-oem $9 battery in a $900+ camera, just to save $40?Is it really much of an issue? No, 0.2/0.4VDC is going to be negligible.

I looked at the power supply for my foscam camera and it puts out 5VDC@ 2000mA or 2A. I looked at the first alert camera and it runs on 5V. I assume DC. Now, if your camera requires it at 2A it should work if the plug will fit. I am guessing that it will but that is just a guess.

Several possibilities for the problem. Use quality batteries such as Duricell and be sure to buy from a supplier with a high turn-over. Be very sure that the battery's are fresh. Even a dead battery will measure 1.5 volts but it will not be able to deliver the required current. When operating with low voltage, contact resistance is always a problem. To minimize this resistance issue, always spin the battery's after installation, this polishes the contacts. There is always the possibility that the unit is defective. I have not had any problems with my unit..............hope this helps.............Bill

Just to offer my experience. I bought it for my Nikon 35Ti, a film camera. This battery works but doesn't last long because the camera shows low power very quickly. Later I got some off-brand rechargeable battery in a local store and they worked a lot batter (at about 2x price, though). I guess the voltage of the Tenergy drops just a bit too fast for my 35Ti. The price is not bad so it may worth trying and see how your camera likes it.
