Hello all,,,
I have PhaseOne P30 DB (its for sale anyway) and I needed new batteries for it. PhaseOne Tech Support says original batteries are 7.2v but its okay to use 7.4v version upto 3500mAh which is BP-930 (only Canon has it with groves in the two sides of the battery body)
Anyway, I bought
Watson BP-915 Lithium-Ion Battery Pack (7.4V, 2200mAh) from B&H but unfortunately because of tiny size deference the battery didn't fit inside DB battery slot.
I sent an email to Watson Tech Support, and here is their reply:
Hello Abdullah,
Thank you for your patience.
Some of our video batteries are larger than their OEM version so it may not fit.
We regret any inconvenience.
Watson
I really liked their battery and had to find the way to make it slide in. I paper sand those batteries from three sides (left, right, and top two edges). Now those batteries are perfectly fits in the DB.
Why I did that? because I'm sure that Watson uses Japanese cells inside their batteries unlike some other Chinese cheap quality.
I thought to share this information with you, and sorry if my post was too long or boring for other users
