[QUOTE="Ron Carlson, post: 258906, member: 20525"] I have 1 Nikon battery for my D7100 and 6 Wasabi batteries. They all work the same and have no issues. I also have 4 Wasabi batteries for my Nikon 1 camera, again, no issues. There is a firmware upgrade that appears to limit functionality of the camera with 3rd party batteries for some models. Also people have reported that the number of pics left and/or battery level on their LCD info not working correctly with 3rd party batteries, depending on the camera model you own. I know that if you purchase a 3rd party battery, ensure you get one that is decoded. Wasabi does have decoded batteries. Apparently decoded batteries provide the correct info on the LCD for info on pic count, battery level, etc. I saw someone had posted that his EXIF data was also being recorded incorrectly with 3rd party batteries. Problem is, most of the reports and complaints do not list the brand of the 3rd party battery, so it is difficult to know what brands to avoid. [/QUOTE]
