terrible - you will lose files

This is terrible. You can't hot-swap batteries, so it's even pointless to have this. What's even worse is you may actually end up with files that are lost or can't be accessed, all because the grip gets loose, and instead of the internal battery kicking in automatically, it waits a couple of seconds before it activates... so whatever you were recording then becomes inaccessible... you can pay someone to fix it, but there's no guarantee they will be able to get the whole file back. Just terrible. Other cameras allow you to replace batteries without any issues, but not Panasonic. It was also the same for my Lumix G85 battery grip. Don't buy it.
Good extra power source.

question
Does the battery grip come with the panasonic DMW-BLF19 or do you have to buy the battery to go with it?
The battery grip does not come with the battery. An additional battery would need to be purchased separately.

is this grip compatible with panasonic DMW-BLK22 ...
is this grip compatible with panasonic DMW-BLK22 Battery?
I'm this questions originator. Thanks for your replies.
This grip is compatible with all GH5 versions by the way.
I have the original GH5 and the GH5 M 2. Thats why I find it odd that if the GH5 M2 body can take both the DMW-BLK22 and the DMW BLF19 batteries, why will the DMW BLK22 not work on the grip?? perhaps this has not been clarified by panasonic?? The DMW BLK 22 seems to have two separate sets of contacts. one Identical to those on the DMW BLF19 and its own. So why would the newer DMW BLK 22 only work on the GH5 M2 and not on the grip?? Even on the plain GH5??

Will this grip allow for 3 cycles of batteries without detaching from the body?
