Can I use this charger with batteries other than Sony NP‑F series?

The charger is optimized for Sony NP‑F series batteries, but it can safely charge any battery with matching voltage and connector specifications. Using non‑compatible batteries may void the safety features.

How long does it take to fully charge a single battery?

Charging a single NP‑F series battery typically takes 1.5 to 2 hours, depending on the battery’s remaining capacity and ambient temperature.

Is an AC adapter included?

Yes, the package includes one AC power cable suitable for standard US outlets. No additional adapters are required for operation.

What warranty does FirstPower provide?

FirstPower offers a one‑year limited warranty covering manufacturing defects. Contact customer support for replacement or repair inquiries.

Can I leave the batteries in the charger after they are fully charged?

The built‑in smart chip stops charging once the battery reaches full capacity, preventing over‑charge. However, for optimal battery lifespan, it is recommended to remove batteries after they are fully charged.
