Product Description

This is a 1300mAh high capacity replacement battery. The higher the mAh rating, the more power a battery can store and the longer it will last per charge. It contains premium Japanese grade A battery cells and is guaranteed to outperform the Panasonic original battery. This battery is CE certified and built to meet or exceed the OEM specification. It is guaranteed to safely power all cameras that use the Panasonic CGA-S007, CGA-S007A/1B, CGA-S007E, CGR-S007E, CGR-S007E/1B, or DMW-BCD10 batteries. The lithium ion chemistry of this battery makes it 100% memory free. Unlike Nickel-Cadmium (Ni-Cad) batteries, lithium ion batteries don't have a "memory effect" which shortens their capacity. They can be partially charged and/or discharged without worry of shortened battery life. Are you concerned about protecting the environment? Do you worry about exposing your family to electronics containing hazardous heavy metals (such as lead or mercury)? You can rest easy knowing this battery is manufactured in accordance with the strict RoHS standards, which call for the Restriction of Hazardous Substances in electrical and electronic equipment. Unlike most aftermarket power supplies, our batteries have undergone rigorous cell cycle testing before leaving our factory. If a battery does not pass our benchmark testing for superior performance, it will be eliminated from the production line. This guarantees the best possible quality in all our batteries and virtually eliminates the chance of a product being shipped dead on arrival. This battery includes a 3-year warranty. Because we use premium Japanese cells and the highest quality components, we are confident that the battery will last the duration of the warranty and beyond. However, in the rare case where you experience a problem with the battery within the warranty period, it will be replaced promptly. Specs: 3.7V, 1300mAh, Rechargeable Li-Ion; Compatibility: Lumix DMC-TZ1, DMC-TZ2, DMC-TZ3, DMC-TZ4, DMC-TZ5.

This review is from: Kinamax 1300mAh S007 / CGA-S007 / CGR-S007 / DMW-BCD10 Replacement Battery for Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ1, DMC-TZ2, DMC-TZ3, DMC-TZ4, DMC-TZ5 - Japanese Cells (Electronics)

I've taken at least 100 pictures in my Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ4K 8.1MP Digital Camera with 10x Wide Angle MEGA Optical Image Stabilized Zoom (Black)with this battery, most of them with flash, since first buying it, charging it, and installing it, and the battery meter just moved down the first bar (there are 3 bars total).

This battery seems to have AT LEAST the capacity of the factory Lumix battery, which makes sense as the factory battery is rated at 1000mAh, and this one is rated at 1300mAh. As far as I can tell so far, that rating is NOT an exaggeration.

One thing to note and watch out for -- the printing/writing on this battery is on the OPPOSITE SIDE of the factory Lumix battery, so you have to put it in the charger and camera in reverse. Pretty self-explanatory if you're looking right at it. Just thought I should point that out.

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

So far so good. Opened the Amazon box this afternoon and dropped this battery into the charger. Pulled the battery off the charger tonight and started to shoot:
350 photos with my TZ5 (2/3 with flash) and the second bar on the battery meter just ticked off. Pretty much says it all.

Excellent economical alternative to the Panasonic battery.

Very happy with the choice.

Needed a spare battery so I ordered this despite two one-star reviews. Not to disparage those reviewers, but this battery is great! Fits fine in my TZ5, and it's a "J" model vs "A". Charges fine as well. I don't have any longevity data yet, but at 1300 mAh, it ought to be at least as good as the Panasonic.
