✅ A battery and charger KIT that you can't miss.
K&F CONCEPT launches this KIT of NP-FZ100 batteries plus the charger that is delivered to us in a box together with a USB cable.
Once we take it out we see a charger with the capacity to charge up to three units of NP-FZ100 batteries, which are the ones that are included.
This battery model, NP-FZ100, is the most compatible in the cameras that Sony has launched lately for some time, so they are the most versatile as they can be used in different camera bodies.
They have a capacity of 2280mAh which is the same as the original Sony ones, although it is true that these from K&F CONCEPT, even when charged to 100%, last a little less.
When you put them in the camera, it recognizes them perfectly and does not pop up any warning that the correct operation is not guaranteed if you use them and if you want to continue or not. And not only that, it also marks on the screen the capacity in % that they have, something that with another brand that I have, at least the one I bought, it didn't show me and I got the warning, in these K&F CONCEPT ones it's the same as if you put an original one in.
In the charger you can put 1, 2 or 3 batteries to charge at the same time, the charge is done independently for each one of them, the only thing that happens is that the charging time, if it will depend on the units that you put to charge since the charger is limited to 2Amp and this energy has to be distributed between the units that you put in. If you put in just one it will take about 2 hours and if you put in all three it will take about 5 hours or so (approximate times).
The charger is delivered with a USB-A to C cable, a Power Supply (charger) is not included, you have to put that one in, but any one you have at home with a 5v and 3Amp output will do so as not to force it since the K&F CONCEPT charger at full charge consumes 2Amp as I mentioned above. Yes, a 5v 2Amp power supply is fine, but it would be forced (to the limit) and in electronics you have to leave some margins and it is better to have a looser one.
You will know the charge status of the batteries at all times thanks to a small LCD display with three battery symbols that indicate the charge with moving lines and that will remain fixed once the battery has charged.
The charger can be powered in two ways or ports, USB-C and Micro-USB, you can use either one but not both at the same time. This is good in case one day you forget or damage the cable and you have to pull out an old cable to get out of trouble, you can also use a USB-C to USB-C cable instead of the one provided, a combination that I see as more logical for the current times.
The batteries, as you can see, are exactly the same as those of the Japanese brand, only the labeling changes and it goes without saying that you can charge the Sony battery without any fear in any of the slots of this K&F CONCEPT charger.
Anyway, I think that K&F CONCEPT has released a good NP-FZ100 battery KIT with charger at a great price and if you have a Sony camera body, it is a good option that you should not miss.
I hope this review has been useful to you
