Nikon En El3E Battery

[0.045 lb] Charges the Watson EN-EL3e battery we use in our Nikon D70 camera just fine. Much cheaper than the Nikon charger.

[4] The Nikon OEM EN-EL3e battery charger is $40 and this wonderful Watson replacement is half the price. It seems to work just as well and comes with the added bonus of having a 12v car charger, which is something the more expensive Nikon version does not offer. I will say, the plastic does feel as high quality as the OEM charger, but it still feels solid enough and gets the job done. I would definitely recommend this charger over the OEM Nikon charger!

[2 to 6 Hour] Fits the Nikon EN-EL3e batteries. Need to push down when sliding onto contacts.  Charging is not too slow.  Shows progress and will test battery charge levels.  Does take up horizontal space and is not designed to hang on wall. AC cord is about 53 long. Comes with a 12v car plug too. Has a USB output (not tested).  Battery plates can be changed to accept other batteries.

[7.4 VDC] You don't need a new camera, just new batteries!! This Watson EN-EL3e put my old Nikon D300 back to work. Charges last plenty long, at least as long as OEM and maybe a bit more. There's no reason to blow tons of cash on a new camera when all you really need is a couple new batteries. These are great!!

[2 to 6 Hour] I purchased the EN-EL3e version since it came with those adapter plates. This version was $10 less than the one marked for EN-EL15 so I was able to purchase this charger and two each adapter plates for EN-EL15 and EN-EL20 for less than the price of the EN-EL15 version. So far it has worked fine and charge all three battery types with no problems.

[11.1 VDC] I use this battery as a back-up to my Nikon battery EN-EL4a rechargeable Lithium-ion Battery Pack. I always use my original Nikon battery but if I am out in the field and my Nikon battery goes down after many shots, I then switch to the the Watson EN-EL4A Lithium-Ion Battery Pack as my back-up until I can re-charge the Nikon battery again at home. I find it's more economical using it that way since there is such a big price difference between the Nikon Battery and the Watson Battery. However the Watson battery is a very good battery and reliable in every way.

[Sony NP-FZ100] Not often do we use the expression it's as good as... and really mean it, but in reference to the Watson EN-EL4A battery used in a Nikon D3x, it is as good as the Manufacturers battery ... in my humble opinion.

When I ordered these I wasn't sure if they would fit the Nikon EN-EL18 battery. They fit perfectly, even with the battery cover door attached. A nice way to carry and protect your extra batteries.

[3.95 x 1.8 x 1"] I am a strong advocate for using branded batteries in my cameras. Unfortunately, Nikon appears to have discontinued the EN-EL3e battery type in favor of the EN-EL15. (Yes, it has many really good improvements.) B&H suggested this battery from Watson as a replacement. It worked great initially, and so far continues to provide really good service.

[Lithium-Ion] The SmallRight EN-EL15c is a solid performer and quick charging battery via the built-in USB-C connector on the battery. There is no need for a separate dedicated battery charger for this SmallRig battery, as the original Nikon EN-EL15c battery requires. It works great on my Nikon Z7. According to SmallRig's website, this battery has a full decoded chip to work on the following Nikon Camera models: D500, D610, D7200, D7500, D750, D780, D810, D810A, D850, Z 5, Z6, Z 7, Z 6II, D7II, and Z8. Note: A person in the reviews here has stated that this battery does not currently work with the Nikon Z f camera that recently came out. Perhaps SmallRig will have a chip update in the future to support the Nikon Z f camera. Note: This SmallRig En-EL15c battery will not charge inside the camera. It will only outside the camera via the built-in USB-C port or via an external battery charger, according to an answer posted by SmallRight support in the comments on the SmallRig website about internal charging inside a Nikon camera with this battery.
