Delivery time: (very good)
1 Day
Packaging: (good)
Everything was delivered in an air-padded package. The individual batteries, the charger, the charger were packaged in small white cardboard boxes. Throughout the packaging was sufficient and everything arrived in good without damage.
Product: (good)
The universal charger is supplied by the plug-and charger for SONY-compatible charger. The charger is very light and looks very high quality made. It can be powered by the four supplied cable. The connections (100-220V / 12V car / microUSB and USB standard) are used exclusively for power supply, even though you might think to connect it via USB to the PC. One can also use its existing mobile phone charger (Micro USB) for power supply and can be traveling the standard cable home.
Batteries: (very good)
The batteries are not genuine Sony batteries, but identical this type. Compared to the original, I can except the other label no differences (either in the color, shape or contacts) notice. The batteries are labeled as follows: Fits NP-BX1 1240mAh 3.6V 4.5Wh Rechargeable Lithium Ion Battery Mady by Patona.
Charging time: (satisfactory to good)
I have not measured the load time and it is not also a fast charger. On the back the following charge current is printed: DC4.2V (350 mA)
That means - even very roughly calculated by me - that a completely empty battery 1240 mAh SONY capacitance is charged in 3-4 hours. That's not particularly fast, but gentler on the LiPo batteries and for my purposes more than adequate. One must not forget also that a normal USB2.0 port even max. 500mAh provides to power. I think it would be a little better, that if you would load about 220, a higher charging current would be available, but that does not make it here. Therefore, a minor nuisance.
Scope of supply:
- 2 batteries (Sony NP-BX1 compatible)
- Charger
- Charger (Sony-compatible)
- Plug
- 12-volt car adapter
- USB to micro-USB adapter
Conclusion: For this, I think, unbeatable price, free shipping and including two batteries I have no comparable device found and have been buying so far not regretted. The only drawback of only low charging current would be to say, but as a travel charger recommended completely. An original SONY battery would be even more expensive, so this complete set including 2 batteries. Madness! I would recommend this charger.
PS: For the battery life I'll take the topic later again and supplemented accordingly, but initial tests seem to make no difference to the original battery.
