Wasabi Power Battery and Charger Kit for Panasonic DMW-BCJ13 DMW-BCJ13E DMW-BCJ13PP and Panasonic Lumix DMC-LX5 DMC-LX7

I lost the factory charger and back-up battery. Without a charged battery my Lumix DMC LX-5 2 2 was useless. The charger is better than the original and the batteries work. And i=the price was right.Brian Campbell

I have watched camera purchasers in various (unnamed here) stores. They usually get (these days) an extra 16GB or even 32GB memory (SD) chip. You can take many thousands of pictures with either of these. Unless of course your battery is dead. Far more essential, and vital if you shoot where your camera flash gets worked, or if you like to bring up the "replay" function to show off or review your pictures, is EXTRA BATTERY POWER. When the flash is used a lot, or when you like to review/show off your pictures a lot, your battery energy gets eaten like M&M's. This kit, which gives me real backup, allows me the freedom to charge all, carry all, and shoot for days averaging over 300 shots a day. (I live next to Yellowstone National Park, and I love photography). This perfectly configured charger and two batteries (for me, used with my LUMIX DMC-LX7) lets me not worry and "shoot away" for up to a week. The battery charger works perfectly and the batteries have the same power curve as the twice as expensive manufacturer's -- yielding the same number at least of shots, and charging effectively in the same time. I have done the same thing with a comparable kit for my CANON cameras. Same result, power at a perfect price.

La marchandise à été reçu très rapidement et entièrement conforme à mes attentes.

I purchased this set because you get two batteries and a portable charger for less than the price if a single OEM battery. The batteries work fine with my LX5. As noted in previous reviews, the camera will not display battery status with these batteries. No big deal when you have spare batteries on hand. Customer support was unusually responsive in resolving an issue with the charger I received. Without going into the details, it did not work properly. Anyway, I sent an email describing my problem to the seller the morning after receiving the items. That afternoon I received a phone call from the seller offering assistance. After some simple troubleshooting, it was decided that the charger was defective, and the representative indicated they would send me a replacement charger. They promptly did so and the replacement charger works perfectly. Amazing!
