FAQ No. 1

How many hours this battery will run my camcorder (or phone)?

 

Dear customers :

Different camcorders requires different power to run it. Some of them using the energy efficiently , Some of the camcorder designer never consider the running time from the first place.

The very same battery you put into your camcorder maybe runs for 2 hours. when it plugs into mine, it maybe only run for one hour.

However, we still have some general rules that we can follow to estimate the approximate running time of a battery.

*The higher the "mAh" number, The longer the running time.*

"mAh"--The rating of the battery , the capacity of the battery.

We shall not and can not tell you how long this battery will run for your camcorder. (We might post some min. or hours numbers in our web page, but that is commercial wording, we will have to do it. ). Please compare the "mAh" number between two batteries, (Your original battery and ours.) Let's say your original battery has "1200 mAh", When that battery was new , it ran for one Hr. Our battery says "1800 mAh", Then our battery will run you camcorder somewhere around 1&1/2 Hrs. If yours number is higher than ours, then our battery will run less time than your original battery.

There is one more thing we need to pay attention about. In most cases, the higher capacity battery has bigger or thicker body. You must make sure that your camcorder can take it.
