Product Description

From the Manufacturer

Data battery BN-VF714U is powered by a long-life 1400mAh rechargeable lithium-ion cell.

JVC Data batteries are able to display their current charge condition at the touch of a button--even when the camcorder is off. The battery shows five levels of remaining battery and record time on camcorder LCD monitor.

Data battery BN-VF714U works with the following models:

• GR-D250
• GR-D270
• GR-D295
• GR-DF430
• GR-DF450
• GR-DF550
• GR-X5

Product Description

Remaining battery and recording time can be easily viewed on any compatible JVC Camcorder, by simply touching one button, even with the power turned off. This allows you to check what remains for both the battery and recording time before shooting, so you can prevent the battery from running out during your video shoot.

4.0 out of 5 stars best to call this a 90 minute battery, January 20, 2006

This is much better than the battery supplied with the camera but I prefer the bigger battery available for this really cool camera, the JVC BN-VF733. CAUTION, don't be fooled (like I was) by buying so called "compatable" batteries, they do not work. The money you think you are saving is better spent buying the real thing.

4.0 out of 5 stars Not too bad, November 16, 2005

First of all, the camera that this goes to is slightly dissappointing. That's beside the point of this review though. The reason you are probably looking at this product is because you might be tired of the standard battery's short lifespan. This product lives up to the three hour life when you use it in viewfinder mode. The only thing I don't like about the battery is the size. It extends further than the standard one and it's almost embarrasing to have it. Other than the size the battery is a great and I would say must have accessory for this particular camera.

4.0 out of 5 stars Does what it claims, July 10, 2006

I've had this battery for a month or so, and upon each consecutive use/charge, I'd have to say I'm pleased. When fully charged, the camera's battery indicator usually says about 170-180 min total-use time... which is about what it claims. It DOES take awhile to re-charge... about 2 1/2 hrs IN the camera, but that's not too bad.
