Fast charger for SONY-NEX-7 + NEX-5 wanted.....

[ChrisViperM]

I am serching like mad, but can't find a fast charger for the NEX-5 and NEX-7. Both use the NP-FW50 Li-Ion batteries......all chargers (including the original) charge with 600 mAh max....so if you go on a trip and wanna charge a couple of them, it's going to take a "whole day".....
For almost all other cameras you get much "faster" chargers, depending on the camera you get sometimes dual chargers, but not for the NP-FW50 - although this battery must be in use in the thousands....


Any of you Gerntlemen have a solution ??? I am not going for cheap China-man crap !!!

Chris I was searching for the same thing about a month ago. I decided to just get a few extra batteries and always have spares. realize that doesnt help with the charging time, however - these batteries were cheap and came with ac/dc charger so I tried it. Been working pretty good. I am not sure at its charge rate - but is seems to charge a bit quicker than stock. but now that i have 4 batteries and 2 chargers - one that i can use in my car or on household plug - i always have a battery ready togo. Seems a major part of my day is charging some kind of battery ...

Thanks for the quick reply....at the moment I am doing exacly the same....drives me nuts....

The only usable charger I found was this one: http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/763921-REG/Pearstone_DLCSONPFW50_Duo_Battery_Charger_for.html

Dual charger and output up to 2Amps, you also could check quickly if the battery is charged or not....but would cost me another $ 60 to get them to Austria....damn it....I might just get it and have a few beers less in the nex weeks to get the cost back :tennis:
