Comments about Anton Bauer H100 Digital HyTRON 100, NiMH Battery:
I like the new digital batteries from A/B... The readout display is wonderful. However, the battery is also quite heavy and actually weighs more than my JVC GY-HM700u. On bigger broadcast cameras that might be a good thing, but on the smaller 1/3" cameras it actually tends to throw it a little out of balance.
Also, note that this battery WILL NOT work with third-party chargers that don't support A/B's new digital technology.

Comments about Anton Bauer H100 Digital HyTRON 100, NiMH Battery:
We had to replace our 6 year old Anton Bauers with a new set for our Sony DSR 250's. We had the choice between the Dionics and Hytrons, and based on the fact that we use them to end of life we went with the Hytrons. The staff at AB were helpful in explaining that while the Dionics are a great battery, they only have an 18 to 30 month life span by their standards, where the Hytrons are more around 4 to 5 years. These will likely outlast the cameras, but I won't have to worry about them dying prematurely.

Comments about Anton Bauer H100 Digital HyTRON 100, NiMH Battery:
We've had 6 of the HyTRON 100s for going on 5 years now. They've been put through the wringer and still operate like champs. Performance has dropped some from when they were new, but that's the nature of batteries. I highly-recommend a charger with a DDM chip to keep them in optimum condition, though.
Comments about Anton Bauer H100 Digital HyTRON 100, NiMH Battery:
I've had this battery for 2 months now, and I have nothingnegative to say about it. Except the high price tag, it's a5-star product.
Comments about Anton Bauer H100 Digital HyTRON 100, NiMH Battery:
We have to film in 2 days and the manual included with the battery says the HyTRON battery can only be charged with a software chip upgrade (revision 3.4 or higher) on our charger (states any Titan series charger)! They list most of their chargers! Then they say to call Customer Support (203) 925-4991! This would have been nice to know BEFORE I bought the battery!
Problems Encountered: Not able to charge the battery!!! BEWARE!
