FS: K10 / K20D Batteries

2010-01-31 Thread Jerome Reyes
5 batteries for the K10D and/or K20D. All 5 are used. One is Pentax brand, the other 4 are Impact. There is nothing wrong with any of them. I just don't own the bodies anymore. $9 each plus shipping, if that seems reasonable. If not, then make me an offer. Also, please send replies to jerome (a

It might have been money well spent. I've got one of each (original and third party), and keep one in the BG-2 grip, and one in the main camera. I found out last week that the cheap battery now only holds enough charge for a couple of hundred shots before it shows up as empty on the camera displ

I have three Pentax Li-On batteries that came with the K10 and the K20s, and three aftermarket from B&H. They all seem to work just fine. No tests, no comparisons, just shooting. I use the aftermarkets in the BG-2s, with the Pentaxes in the camera (In case one blows up or burns up and destr

Don't ask me, I'm one of those idiots who paid $45 for an original Pentax battery when I bought the K10D. Been smacking myself in the head ever since. I keep telling myself that I did my bit to help increase the K20D R&D budget (you're welcome)...but I'm not sure I believe myself. Enjoy the Camera

Enjoy your new camera! I've used no-name Li-Ion rechargeables from bestbatt.com for years now and never had any issues whatever with them. They last as long as the OEM batteries I've compared them to. I also use the travel chargers they sell. The one for the K20D is $14: http://www.bestba
