A few questions: 1) Will it charge a Panasonic Lumix camera battery 7.2v, If I use the Panasonic DC charger cradle? 2) Will it charge direct to the camera battery, bypassing the cradle, if I use a Panasonic DC coupler? 3) Will it charge a higher rated...

Phillip, this solar unit is great for charging anything that can charge via USB. I use mine for my iPhone, jambox, kindle fire, ect... I think some of instaparks larger units will charge AC and DC though. As for your question about the 11,000mAh battery, I think you may want one of instaparks larger units for that.

I don't know. I do know that most battery chargers are very specific to the batteries that they will charge. The battery chargers a and the batteries I have very specific milliamps and also voltage requirements. A 500 mA battery and a 700 mA battery are not the same. Likewise a 7.4 V and a 7.2 V batteries and chargers are not the same. So I think the best thing to do is to check with the Panasonic people to see what battery charger you should use and can use. Hope this helps good luck

I don't have your camera, but multiple sites list the DMW-BCM13PP, DMW-BCM13E, and DMW-BCM13 as being interchangable. The Panasonic site does not differentiate between these different battery subtypes. I suspect that this battery and charger should work fine in your camera.

It can be recharged in the camera with the provided usb cable. However, I would advise buying a separate charger for convenience. I also boughta second battery, although you must buy the Panasonic brand as the camera is programed only to recognize Panasonic batteries. This means you will pay about double for a battery than you would if this was not programmed into the camera.

I'm sorry but I really can't tell you. I have a Panasonic Lumix DMC-ZS10. My camera came with an authentic Panasonic battery and battery charger. It worked great but I wanted an additional battery so I ordered a battery charger with two batteries that came in a kit. It said that they were compatible with my camera and could be substituted for the Panasonic battery, had the same battery number but was not authentic Panasonic. I found that although they worked briefly in my camera they didn't work the next time I used my camera. Both of these batteries acted the same way. When I used the authentic Panasonic battery it worked perfectly. I then ordered another authentic Panasonic battery and although it was more expensive than the two battery/charger kit, this new battery worked great. My husband told me to throw out the other battery kit because it may damage my camera. The second authentic Panasonic battery that I ordered was identical in every way to the battery that came with my camera. At least in my case, I would not order a substitute battery for my camera even if they say it is compatible. It may ruin your camera. My advice is to find out the number of the authentic Panasonic battery that your owner manual recommends (mine is DMW-BCG10PP) and order that authentic Panasonic battery. The off-brand substitute batteries I ordered would not hold a charge and I had to replace them each time I used the camera. I then would recharge these batteries and they would again only hold enough charge for one use - then they were dead.

yes batteries work great in my lumix and i like to carrier extra batteries with me. i took my camera home to oregon from texas, and i needed to charge them up while at thebeach, just plug the charger into outlet in car and it worked great. have had no trouble at all with them, and yes i would buy them again if i needed them. i have had these for about7 months now.

Yes the charger only charges the battery in the camera. However, I was able to purchace from an ebay store a charger that charges the battery externally from the camera and it came with two 1400 maH (Hi Capacity) batteries which though not made by Nikon, work great and last a long time. Now I can carry two extra, fully charged batteries with me.

The battery is a Panasonic Lumix -- Osaka Japan and made by Panasonic Corp. It works OK, but there is an inconsistency with the advertised product and the actual product. The Amazon.com seller lists the battery at 3.7v --1000 mAh ,but the battery I have in hand is 3.6v 970mAh. Not a lot of difference and likely not really a problem, except it will require a recharge a little earlier that a 1000mAh battery would. Other than that, it looks like a good product.

My Lumix G3 will, I believe, charge the battery when it's inside the camera. I never do it that way. I charge batteries in an external charger--of which I have the Lumix charger, and also a third party (Wacom) charger that came with Wacom batteries that I bought. Either charger works for all my batteries.

The one supplied with the camera is a 240V charger. If that is not sufficient you can probably buy one aftermarket on Amazon or BestBuy or try here first BHPhoto.com I really think you can find a converter somewhere after market if you really need one though. I would be careful though, these chargers are pretty specific and using a non-compatible converter could cause the battery to either lose it's charge altogether or overheat and damage the camera.

I have purchased an extra battery from Leica. I recall reading that there may be issues with not adhering to the manufacture's recommendations, unfortunately I don't recall where I read it. The Leica recommends Leica brand batteries and charging it with the supplied charger cable in the camera. I suggest getting a definitive recommendation from Leica before using a wall charger.

Yes the battery in the charging cradle needs on to fiddle with it...in order for the terminals to connect properly. It is a bit of a pain, but it could be worse....the battery charger for my camera.

I have used universal pin style chargers for a few years now to charge several different types of 3.6 to 3.7 volt camera batteries. If you search on Amazon, charger model 0797734229660 looks like a good possibility and Cellet model 319660 is the style I use. These style of chargers have adjustable contact pins to line up with different sized battery. If you want a charger specifically for this battery only then search for a Casio NP-40 battery charger. This camera uses Casio NP-40 batteries if you are looking for spares.

Thanks, I thought so. A friend of mine ordered a pkg deal from eBay and it didn't come with the charger. I guess she got ripped off with that. She ended up having to go out and buy one.One more question... I've been looking on here to find the best memory card for the camera without paying too much money for an actual Panasonic one. Is the Transcend memory card compatible? (The Transcend 16GB SDHC memory card with USB plug-in). I've read mixed reviews about which ones work or don't work.Thanks in advance & thanks for the previous response.

I looked at the power supply for my foscam camera and it puts out 5VDC@ 2000mA or 2A. I looked at the first alert camera and it runs on 5V. I assume DC. Now, if your camera requires it at 2A it should work if the plug will fit. I am guessing that it will but that is just a guess.

i believe this is just the power rating for the battery. i have 3 batteries (all for my camera), all with different mAh levels and this charger works with all of them. hope this helps.

Thanks!However, I found that the generically obtainable AC-DC converters do not have a tip that will work with the Panasonics.And, although I bought my phone system in the US, as other users have found, the US power supplies (with the dual flat blades) also work with an easy to find US to Euro mains plug adapter (flat blade to pin-type). The power supply apparently has internal sensing circuitry that permists 110-240v AC mains input, and still provides the appropirate DC output, even though it is not so labeled.
