Nitecore, a Chinese third-party battery manufacturer and maker of “smart” battery solutions for digital cameras, has announced a replacement rechargeable Sony camera battery for Sony cameras that features a built-in USB-C charging port that eliminates the need for Separate walls There’s no shortage of third-party batteries on the market for photographers and videographers, but most don’t match the performance of first-party, name-brand versions.
That said, every once in a while, a brand releases something unique or special that offers additional benefits on top of the expected savings from third-party purchases. One such example is Nitecore, discovered by Gizmodo.
The new Nitecore UFZ100 does away with the bulky wall charger that usually comes with the Nitecore UFZ100 camera battery, replacing it with a USB-C charging port located directly on the battery, allowing users to charge it using a standard charger.

While nice, a green indicator of only 50% capacity isn’t as useful as it is showing it’s fully charged or close to it.

The company also didn’t specify whether the Sony camera battery supports charging when mounted on a Sony wall charger.As of press time, pricing and availability for the Nitecore UFZ100 battery have not been disclosed.Update 4/21/22: The Knight Cole UFZ100 will be available in early May at Knight Cole stores for $71.59.
