Great alternative for a good price.

Get them they are so cheap..AND WORK I bought these batteries a year ago because I do long shoots for weddings and music videos. I bought these assuming that even if they did work they might only last me a few mounts. I figured for the price it was a pretty good deal even if I did have to eventually buy more after a few uses. To my surprise they worked just as good as the Official ones,Now I have 4 Lumix S5's and I have 5 official batteries and 6 BM premiums batteries. The BM batteries have been charged and fully emptied over 60 times at least and they still work "fine" (cons) These batteries new work great, one negative I've notice when the battery gets to the last bar they sometimes might just die. So if you're out shooting and the camera has 2 bars and then you see it get down to 1 a few moments later it can just be dead. I feel like the Official batteries give you more time with the Low Battery indicator before I don't know if this means overall it holds less of a charge than the Lumix batteries or if its just the cells dying after heavy usage ( I Hope the S5 gets a Firmware update to see battery %). I was totally willing buy new batteries every few months but these are still going. Charger is kinda slow so I usually just leave them over night. During weddings I've noticed its take them about 3.5-4 hours to fully charge but since I usually switch out once I notice I only have one bar left(20% or less) I'm assuming it might be closer to 5 hours to fully charge from a dead battery.

This isnthe second set of these batteries that I have purchased for my Lumix S5s. They work great.

Works real well. It recharges two batteries at a time. Very convenient.

batteries are really low power

Duraderas y funcionan perfectamente

Batteries are OK, but the charger is super cheap, like the batteries barely fit, you gotta press hard, and then tap on them for the light to change to red so you know it's charging, but then light will go back to green and will stop charging, until you tap on the battery a few times for it to connect once again and start charging..

These batteries perform about on par with the high priced camera batteries. They are a little slower to charge with their included charger, but who's in a rush. It is about a 4 to 5 hour charge when the battery is empty. When you have multiple batteries, it is not a problem. Good performance for about one fourth the price. I would use this brand again.
