Nikon EN-EL18d Battery

There has been a bad batch of this particular battery model, genuine and direct from factory. The batteries wouldn't take a charge or would start to charge and quit. These have been difficult to find, have been out of stock in most camera stores. Was very glad to find this one and the fact that it works as it should. Thank you for having it available. Fast shipping, easy transaction.

I've never bought off brand batteries for my camera gear. And I've never been disappointed with genuine Nikon products including these battered. The EN battery series has been as reliable as gmt clock. I've not had one issue with any of the EN batteries from the d1 to now the z9. They're worth the dough and sometimes you can find them discounted. They're expensive but worth it.

I bought this battery as backup but it is defective. When I put on the charger it just blinks and on the camera it is dead. I couldn’t return it because I was out of the country. And I just tried the battery after I came back. But the time for returns already expired. I left my equipment at home when I was out of the country so that’s why I just tried to use it recently. Amazon doesn’t want to exchange the product and Nikon said they recommend me to buy direct from them.

Good

I ordered this so that I would have a second battery for my Z9 when I am out shooting. It’s identical to the one that came with the camera and has worked great for me to be able to swap in the field from one battery to the next. I purchased a second cover, so they’re both swappable in seconds without having to change the cover from one battery to another

Yes it is expensive but worth every penny. Battery life is not an issue. On an empty pack, it'll fully charge in 3.5 hrs. I used a Nikon en el18c and an aftermarket counterpart on a previous system and over time the Nikon simply lasted longer. I doubt any aftermarket en el18d battery that comes out will outlast and outperform this battery over a period of time.

I have always been willing to pay a little more Nikon official products because of their reliability and durability. There is something wrong with these batteries. The one that came with my Z9 died withing six months. I purchased a replacement and it died after about a year. I also purchased one more and it died last month. I'm not a professional photographer so they didn't get heavy heavy use for days and weeks and months on end. In all three cases they would not charge in an official Nikon charger (I've bought two of them under the theory that it was the charger.) I don't know what to say about this except its three strikes and you're out. The 3rd party Wasabi batteries on the other hand have not failed.

Genuine Nikon battery for Z9, has hologram sticker and Genuine box. Exact replacement battery.

MUY BIEN

Bought a 2nd battery for backup for a Nikon Z9. Works as expected.

It’s a battery, what can I say.

Si cometiste el error de no probarla en los primeros 30 días después de la entrega, no hay garantía ni devoluciones. El vendedor ignora completamente tus mensajes, Nikon dice que su política es de no garantía en baterías, aún cuando cuestan más del doble que las genéricas. Esta batería no carga, se quedan las tres luces parpadeando, tampoco funciona en la cámara, totalmente muerta.

The battery is for the Nikon Z9 and delivers a considerable number of shots per charge, however when purchased the battery spent too long on the store shelf and was completely discharged. Once in this discharged state I was unable to charge it. Returned and received a refund.
