Panasonic DMW-BLC12 battery with CL


Recommended Posts

Has anyone used these batteries with the Q or the CL? They appear to be identical to the Leica batteries, but on their website B&H say they are not compatible for some unstated reason.

Have been using the Panasonic BLC12 without incident on both Q  and CL.   While they appear to produce slightly less voltage [7.2 vs 8.4 w] there has been no difference in use.  There has been absolutely no difference in use.

Like Jaap, I have been using Jupio batteries. One of my Jupios seems to have a problem with a higher than acceptable self-discharge rate. My Leica batteries measure 8.37V and 8.41V. My good Jupio is 8.33V.

I have had problems in the past with my C112 and my wife's V-Lux 20 with Hähnel batteries being incorrectly sized. They were both too narrow and as a result, were not firmly retained by the battery clip. This could mean when you opened the battery compartment flap, the battery would "ping" out. Hahnel replaced both but the replacements had the same problem. As the batteries worked OK apart from the size issue, I kept them and put some strips of gaffer tape on one face, so they were forced against the clip and latched in properly. However, a bit careless making batteries that are not the correct size.

There is also this Sigma battery and charger which works completely identically with the CL.
The prices are also interesting.

I found today another charger (Micro-USB) that is very interesting for my bicycletrips in lonesome countries, because I could use a powerbank instead of a 110/240V-plug:
