Not very happy with this product! We bought this battery to replace the original Sharp BT-H32U battery as we wanted to use the camcorder during our overseas trip. It seemed to charge OK but once we started using the camcorder in Australia (where it was winter) it started functioning strangely.
At times it would show flat battery, then show full and at times switch itself off. Often the charge would not last very long at all compared to the original battery. As a result of doing one or more of these functions in quick succession, it jammed the tape in the camera and nearly lost us all the video we had taken. Luckily I managed to remove the tape without breaking it, but from that time we used the camera sparingly and did not switch it on/off too often when we did use it.
Overall, I do not believe it is too much to ask that something as simple as a camcorder battery be reliable - which this one was not.

THE BATTERY WOULD NOT HOLD A CHARGE AT ALL EVEN AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS TO CHARGE IT OVERNIGHT AS THE PACKAGE INSTRUCTED. THEREFORE, I HAVE SINCE RETURNED THE BATTERY SINCE IT WAS PURCHASED DIRECTLY FROM AMAZON.COM AND HAVE REQUESTED A FULL REFUND. I DO NOT RECCOMMEND THAT ANYONE PURCHASE THIS PRODUCT.
