Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Lenmar DLP007 Digital Camera Equivalent to the Panasonic CGA-S007A Battery
Customer Review: The battery I received was defective
Summary: 1 Stars
I bought this battery for my new camera Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ3K. I charged it several times, but there was no voltage at all.
I also notices that when it was charging, the light on the charger was flashing, this usually indicates the battery/charger connector is dirty or defective. I was sure the charger was ok since I had no problem to charge the original battery that came with the camera. So I used a dry cloth to clean the new battery connector and charged it again, the light was still flashing. But I went ahead to charge it overnight anyway, but it still did not work, I had to return the battery.
Customer Review: Lasts Almost as long as OEM and a lot less expensive
Summary: 4 Stars
These are good quality batteries in my opinion. I have had them for about 6 months now. They charge and hold charge fine. I have noticed a slight bit less life than the OEM but at the cost they are fine. I bought two so I now have 3 batteries total to rotate between. They fit the slot perfectly and are not larger or "swelled" up like some of the really cheap brands. They come in a sealed package and the batteries have clear writing on them (on the opposite side from the photo you see on Amazon's site). I say this because some of the generic ones on ebay I have seen are illegible.Customer Review: Only lasted a year
Summary: 2 Stars
Purchased the battery in February 2008. Worked fine size and power wise with my OEM charger and TZ3 camera though it seemed to last a few shots less than the original Panasonic battery (CGA-S007A). However, starting a few weeks ago, the battery refused to charge the full time and dies extremely quickly when placed in my camera. It's been less than 1.5 years. The battery has a 3 year warranty on it but Lenmar charges $7.50 shipping and handling for warranty returns over 90 days.
Cheap price but not a recommended purchase.
Customer Review: Works great with TZ5, Panasonic charger
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this Lenmar battery as a backup for my Panasonic TZ5 camera. Not much to say (it's just a battery, after all!) other than:
1. It fits the TZ5 and works great;
2. The Panasonic charger that came with the TZ5 can recharge this battery;
3. It costs 1/4 of a genuine Panasonic battery and comes with a 3-year warranty;
4. The charge seems to last a good long while (sorry, I know it's subjective, but I haven't done any timed tests).
Highly recommended!
Customer Review: Don't waste your money.
Summary: 1 Stars
I didn't notice until we went on vacation what a difference there is between this battery and the real Panasonic battery! This battery cannot last for a normal vacation day of pictures! Fortunately, I brought the Panasonic battery along on that first day out and could go back to the car and change batteries! From then on I made sure to only use this battery at night while I was charging up the Panasonic battery for the next days shooting!
Don't depend on this battery! It will let you down!
