Anyone have any issues with the replacement pack of batteries? Is there a trick to it...??? Thank you for the help!

Mine's worked perfectly since day one. On one occasion several months ago the camera didn't recognize the second battery, but unplugging and reinstalling the battery pack cured that. Actually, I think I forgot to turn off the camera when changing batteries. Just make sure the camera is turned off when removing or reinstalling the battery pack. I'm very happy with this unit. I'll admit I do use ONLY Nikon brand batteries, though. I've learned over the years to be a bit skittish about third party brand batteries in my Nikon DSLR's.

I had no issues! The extra grip simply attaches to the bottom of your camera. The feel is a little on the cheap side, but I LOVE this thing. I would buy it again in a heartbeat. At less than half the cost of the Nikon extender grip it is worth every penny.

Mine has worked perfectly as well since I bought it - no issues or problems at all. Not sure exactly what you mean by 'replacement pack' of batteries - I have only used the Nikon brand batteries in this grip, and like Chad K. posted - stay with the name brand for batteries. You won't be disappointed.

I have the same problem as you!I've changed batteries and still behaves in the same way.I bought mine at Home Depot, but If a had read the reviews before buying I would not have acquired it

you might try letting it fully discharge the power in the battery pack and then try recharging for full power. If this does not remedy the problem i would recommend sending it back for a replacement. I have 3 of these and never had this issue.

Did you ever resolve this? I have just tried to recharge my batteries after long non use - one seems to have fully discharged and unit won't come on. I stated to charge second battery and it too is discharging. I have taken it off charger in case I lose it too. Love to know your outcome.

I am experiencing the same problem. I thought that the batteries died. I have not replaced them yet.

I am presently out of town and unable to look at the ones I have. I have never had a problem. They are always well charged and quite btrght when darkness falls. I will be home the end of the first week in Feb and would be happy to check and see if the batteries are replaceable. Off hand I think they may not be, I recall they are well sealed.

I've had no issues with mine at all. Try replacing the batteries first then disconnect the clip where it connects together leave off for 30 sec. Then plug it in is what I'd do. Good luck

Mine were the same, tried new batteries, that didn't work so I sent them back. Too costly and I got frustrated with them. I really liked them when they worked!

I have. I think it's a faulty battery pack, can't figure out what else it could be :(

I have had mine for some time and don't recall that it was a problem when I installed the battery. Sounds like you may have to return it and get another, BTW, I do like (and trust) the unit.

It might be that the charger died. I have had that happen. They don't last all that long. About as twice as long as the batteries in my experience. Do you have another charger to test them in. Maybe a friend has one.

I purchased mine 6 weeks ago and am now having the same issue. I am wondering if yours and mine are from a bad lot. I have emailed the seller directly (per Amazon's instructions for defective batteries) and am waiting to receive an answer. I will most likely email the address on the box it came in if I don't hear back from the seller very soon.

I have not had this problem. I left my batteries for my camera for many hours, even days, without any trouble. Recommend that you contact the manufacturer and I'm certain that they will send you new batteries.

Yes, I broke 3 out of 4 of my batteries this way. I think this was because of the oscillating tool, I know that is what did the last one in. I also think that tool killed one of the batteries out right as it was freshly charged a d just stopped a few seconds in, and would not charge or work after that.

Mine is still working well, however, I just use it occasionally. If you are sure that your batteries are good, I have no idea what's wrong with it. You can try contacting their customer service.

Wow i thought i was the only one... i bought it just over a year and a half and mine has stopped holding its charge aswell. I believe a new battery would solve the problem though. If you find one please let me know aswell.

Hi T.N. - Not sure about battery replacement. I've had my unit for about a year now with no issues. I searched the web and did not find a replacement battery available. Could it be that you have a faulty charger? Try calling the customer care phone number - 1-866-738-4379
