What is the difference between an OEM digital camera battery and DuracellDirect's digital camera batteries?
We carry replacement Duracell Direct digital camera batteries for Argus digital cameras that will meet or exceed OEM manufacturer
specifications. All aftermarket Argus digital camera battery products come with a full one year warranty, and carry
various UL, CE, RoHS and FCC safety certifications. Aftermarket digital camera batteries are built with high quality
materials and newer technology which makes them longer lasting digital camera batteries, safe, and have an advantage over
OEM Argus digital camera batteries.
What different types of Argus digital camera batteries are there?
There are several different types of aftermarket Argus digital camera batteries that you might find on DuracellDirect.
These different Argus battery chemistry types are: Li-Ion (Lithium Ion), Ni-Cad (Nickel Cadmium), Li-Poly (Lithium
Polymer), or NiMH (Nickel Metal Hydride). Li-Ion is a fairly common digital camera battery chemistry type for Argus
batteries. Each Argus digital camera battery chemistry type has advantages and disadvantages, such as longer life per
charge, longer overall life cycle, weight, size, faster charge time, or stability. All four battery chemistry types
are universally accepted in Argus digital cameras.
Why do Argus batteries have different capacities?
Argus digital camera battery capacity is measured in “mAh” (milliampere-hour). Many different factors affect digital camera
battery capacities: in particular, digital camera battery cell size, voltage, wattage, and even the battery chemistry type.
The more electrolyte and electrode material there is in the digital camera battery cells, the larger the capacity will be
if the chemistry make up is the same. Argus digital camera batteries with larger capacities will always last longer than
digital camera batteries with lower battery capacities.
How long will my Argus digital camera battery last?
Your replacement Argus digital camera battery should last a few hours for recording and playback. Recharging your Argus
battery will take one to three hours to reach a full charge, with 80% battery capacity being reached the first hour.
Argus digital camera battery lifespan should last for about three years and can handle over 500 discharge / charge cycles.
How safe are Argus digital camera batteries and batteries in general? How do I take care of my Argus battery?
