DSTE DMW-BLC12 DMW-BLC12E DMW-BLC12PP Li-Ion Battery Compatible with Panasonic Lumix DMC-G7, DMC-GH2, DMC-FZ330, DMC-FZ200, DMC-FZ1000

Great value

Just received so not had chance to charge therefore unable to comment further

The battery is to charge my Lumix FZ1000 camera.I already have two others so as to not run out of power whilst I am aircraft spotting

I bought two of these to supplement the genuine batteries for my FZ1000 camera. The original Panasonic BLC12E batteries seem impossible to find now and were always rather costly.These alternatives seem to do the job for a fraction of the price. They have a higher capacity than the originals (12.6Wh versus 8.7) and as you'd expect from that they take a little longer to charge. The originals I have take an hour and forty minutes, give or take, to fully charge and these take two hours in the same Panasonic charger.On testing by shooting 4K video, they do last a little longer. Charged and left on the shelf for a couple of days, they kept their charge at full capacity (N.B. never leave batteries in the camera when not in use, this will dramatically shorten their usable life).Longevity remains to be seen, but on initial use they work fine and are much cheaper. Hard not to recommend.

200 shots without a battery warning is probably better than the panasonic ones, maybe it's down to luck but I've had this brands batteries before and this is one of the better ones from what I can tell. They always work okish but this seems as good or better than the panasonic own.

This battery was sold at a very good price and appear to be working well. As for longevity, I have only had it a week so cannot comment at the moment

Don't buy this product, mine stopped charging after three days , and am now stuck with it, absolute crap product !!

Happy so far
