1) Will this safely charge the original battery that comes with the Sony RX1? 2) are the two batteries that come with this safe to use in the RX1?

I have already charged the original Sony battery without problems. I am using the two replacement batteries without problems, as well. Of course I cannot guarantee that there will not be problems in the future. I hope not.

We charged the original battery that came with the camera with this charger successfully. I assume our battey was the OEM since it was the one that came with the Canon camera.

Hello I have the Sony HDRXR550v which uses the NP-FV100 and this battery replacement (w/ charger) is working fine in my camera for over a year, I would recommend it :-)

If your battery is the identical model, or your camera the models that are listed, then you should be able to charge us on the original Sony charger.

Iuse the USB charger to charge the battery that is in the radio. I have not charged my spare battery, becuase once you start charging and discharging them, they begin to wear out. I will use the 1st battery until it won't hold a charge any longer, and then install the 2nd battery.

Yes it charges the same as the stock battery that comes with the Camera. and a plus is that it has nearly twice the power of the original battery, meaning a longer lasting.

They should theoretically last longer. They have no safety issues that I know of. I've used them as backup batteries. The key spec is the voltage, which is the same as the Sony original, so it is compatible.

If the battery is charged in the camera rather than in a seperate charging cradle then extra caution is certainly called for. The charging process is the most dangerous (barring accidental shorting of the battery's contacts). Most bad batteries just refuse to hold a charge though. One of the reasons reviews of 3rd party batteries are all over the map is that, in my experience, you may get a perfectly usable battery or you may get a complete dud that can't even be charged at all or which only lasts for a few minutes. Some batteries are just stored too long and their charge has fallen too low over time to keep the battery viable (batteries have a limited shelf life). And some batteries are just not manufactured very well. I have a Lenmar universal camera battery charger but I'm not too confident in it (for one thing, it doesn't use the batteries' built-in thermal protection lead and, for another, it seems to stumble with very low batteries). Haven't tried Lenmar batteries in particular though. The best high quality 3rd party batteries I HAVE tried are made by SterlingTek.com http://sterlingtek.com/canb13bapaeq.html

It's my understanding that the battery is proprietary to Sony, but once it is purchased from them, it is easy to install. No problem whatsoever.

Yes the original Sony battery as well as an aftermarket backup battery. I preferred this bundle over others because the extra memory card was a high speed Sony card, not a cheaper version.

No problem with them. They are a lot better than the original battery that came with my Sony camcorder. Holds a charge longer and also chargers faster. Hope this help's you.

I charge my original battery with no issue whatsoever, and no impact on battery performance. This does not charge a battery as fast as the original OEM charger, but you will not be disappointed. I keep 1 battery in the charger at all times, a fully charged spare battery in my bag, and of course, one in the phone. If I end up using my spare while I am out, when I get home I just swap them and have a fully charged battery ready to go.

I bought this battery for my DSC-HX20v, but it did not work properly or did not work at all, I can't remember. I ended up buying the "real thing" from Sony and it works fine. I love the camera by the way.

It means non Original Equipment. In other words, you will not see Sony on the battery itself. That said, mine works great... charges, hold charge, good discharge rate. Most often ( if not always), brand name batteries are actually made by third-party manufacturers, acquired by the computer brand (e.g. Sony), then affixes the Sony label on them, then sells them as OEM. Marketing stuff...

Flip the battery so the side that says "For Sony NP-BX1" is facing down. Then, slide the battery into the charger so the charging tongs touch the copper plated area on the battery. My Premium Tech (tm) charger also says "fits SN BX1" but you should be able to fit the NP-BX1 batteries in.

Yes, this kit comes with the original Sony battery and a spare battery for a total of 2 batteries.

In my case it works with Sony NP-BN battery, which came together with the camera, and also with Wasabi BTR-BN1-JWR. The latter came with Wasabi Power charger (2 of them). Actually, the Wasabi charger charges both batteries and does it much faster than Sony charger.
