Game changing battery with inbuilt charger
K&F are renowned for making top quality and affordable photography equipment and this K&F NP-W235 is no different.
The K&F branded NP-W235 battery has an inbuilt charger meaning all I need to charge it up is a USB C cable (either USB A to USB C or USB C to USBC), eliminating the need to take a bulky battery charger with me, and this is a game changer for me.
The K&F NP-W235 battery takes around 2.5 hours to fully charge which is longer than using a conventional NP-W235 battery and charger however this is a trade off I am willing to accept for the convenience of the K&F battery.
This battery doesn’t last as long as the Fuji branded batteries, but this is to be expected and I have yet to find any third party branded battery that lasts as long Fuji branded batteries. It is evident I don’t get as many photos or as many video minutes per charge however the difference isn’t that great. Besides, these batteries are a fraction of the price of Fuji branded batteries so I’ll just get another one.
Many third party batteries are a poor fit and suffer swelling when hot. I have not experienced this using the K&F NP-W235 battery and it fits nice and tight, hence ensuring a good connection, but also easy to remove at the end of the session when it needs charging.
At £36.99 (at the time of review) these K&F batteries are a fraction of the cost of the Fuji branded batteries and are great value for money. One thing that is worthy of note is that number of shots/video minutes per pound is less than Fuji branded batteries.
Overall these K&F batteries are superb and highly recommended and when I need additional batteries I am going to go for these over Fuji branded batteries not least because of the convenience of not having to take a charger.
