In itself, the battery is not bad even with video recordings. But if he stayed a long time without use in my camera (about 1 1/2 months), my Nicon camera from power shortage did not turn back. When measured in the off state of the camera could not be detected in the minimum area not consumption. This battery was also outside the camera for 1 - 2 months empty. As Ladstation the Accu Cell Li-ion Power Set CR-V3 charger was used.
