Watson C-4203 Reviews

Fully Charges

By Mallon,
Rated 5 out of 5

Little charge appears to fully charge the 'L' series batteries. Charge time is reasonably quick and doesn't heat. Good deal if lasts.

No way to know charging level, or when fully charged

By Mark

I bought this as part of a kit (Aputure Amaran AL-F7 On-Camera LED Light Kit with Battery & Charger). Here I am only rating and reviewing the charger. I do not believe I have EVER before purchased or owned a charger that had no means of letting the user know when the battery is fully charged, until now. I am also used to having a charger let me know what the charging level is, but again do not expect that feature on this one, for it is not there. In short, if you plug it in with a depleted battery, you have to wait an hour or two and then pull the battery off the charger and put it into a device so that your device can tell you if the battery is charged (or not). C'mon Watson, that is pathetic! I will be finding another charger for my L-series NP-F batteries. I would NEVER recommend this to anyone.

Does what it's supposed to do.

Works well, holds tight

Charges my Watson aftermarket battery and OEM Sony battery equally well. It does REALLY lock onto the battery - it holds it so stiffly that pulling the battery out of the charger often pulls off the swappable charging plate too.

Decent battery charger

This charger is decent, though the plastic casing feels a bit flimsy. There is a detachable set of prongs for different electrical sockets around the globe, which is nice. The USB port for charging other devices helps when you have a limited number of electrical outlets available. Overall, a useful accessory for your battery charging needs.

Good product

I have had it a very short time: charged the Watson battery and soy battery and all is fine.

Had an old camcorder I wanted to use but couldn't find the charger, now with this charger I can recharge the battery and re use my camera! Does the job, like other comments say you can't check the battery percent charge, but a little light turns green when the battery is done charging/completely charged. I also like that it comes with a US, European and car plug.
