[QUOTE="Drew Wat, post: 109818, member: 12274"] well after a charge and batteries in the grip seems to be working fine. I stopped by one of our camera stores today and had a look at the Nikon MB-D14 grip and really I see no real difference in either of the grips. They both look the same and feel the same. Like they had both come out of the same factory only one got the Nikon stamp and the other didn't. I have tried the new battery in both the camera and just the grip and it makes contact and seems to work just fine. The only thing that I dislike about this grip is that one battery stays in the camera and you have to take it off to get the other battery out and that goes for both the one for Nikon and the no name brand one. I like the old D80 grip better as you have both batteries in the grip. Just passing on the info to people that are interested in this type of grip. I know that I will save what money I can so that I can afford other gear. :) Also the grip does come with the optional 8 AA battery clip for those times when you can't charge the rechargeable batteries.
