Comments about Panasonic VW-VBG260 3 Hour Rechargeable Battery Pack for HDC Camcorders:

I use this with my Panasonic HDC-TM300 Twin Media HD Camcorder. The battery that comes with the camcorder lasts about 1.5 hours.

I needed a battery that would last longer, but did not want a knockoff brand. This battery is now my main battery and the other a backup battery.

The battery takes longer than desired to charge. Not much you can do about that... It may be the charging units fault - I do not know if a quick charger exists for this battery.

The battery prices are higher than desired, but other than knockoff brands there are no alternatives.

The battery description does not mention the Panasonic HDC-TM300 in their compatibility list - but it works perfectly with it.

Abes had the best price - and my experience with them in the past has always been excellent.

Comments about Panasonic VW-VBG260 3 Hour Rechargeable Battery Pack for HDC Camcorders:

I use this as my regular battery. I've used it a bit to test-drive it before taking it traveling overseas, which was a primary intent to invest in the long-life battery so quickly. Pricey on MANY websites, though AbesofMaine offered the best deal and I went for it. My cam warns, of course, not to use no-name brand batteries cause it could potentially harm the camera (and my purchased 4-year warranty) - with the investment I made in the camera, I felt it worthwhile to invest in the real battery.

Great about it - seems true to its life length.
Not to great - it does add a bit of weight to your hand-held camera, but compared to old-school vid cams still much lighter!

Worth the investment for what I wanted.
