Q: 1. A recently purchased used Sony NP-BX1 (Made in China) battery does not fit my Sony RX100 VII camera. Why?

A: There should be no compatibility issues normally, but a used or non-OEM NP-BX1 battery could be damaged or swollen. Please be careful handling swollen lithium-ion batteries as they can be dangerous. Please call our video live-chat team or our customer service crew and maybe we can take a look at this battery and diagnose the problem.

Q: 3. Looking for similar product with same size but with usb type c connection. Is there anything like that?

A: No, you will have to use a different cable or get a usb-c adapter.

Q: 4. can the battery be charged while in the camera or must it be taken out?

A: When you buy the camera, it comes with a charger that plugs into the wall, then a mini-USB connector connects to the camera to charge the battery. That's how I have used it for years. Apparently they do sell an external charger for these batteries. I have a couple of these batteries, and it is frustrating on a trip to have to charge the batteries one at a time, in the camera. You might want to get the external charger.

Q: 5. Does it include the clear plastic case for the battery ?

A: I have several spare batteries to carry in my purse or camera case. I bought plastic pill boxes for $1 each at a well known store that sells containers. These are just the right size for these batteries. I taped in a sheet of paper that wraps around the battery, with dead and charged written on the ends of the paper, so that I can put the appropriate end up when I change the battery in the camera. It's a bit DIY, but works well for me.
