I bought a SONY NP-FG1 as a spare for my W290, but it acts strange. When I charge it with the charger that came with the camera, the charging LED would stay on for only about 6 seconds, then go off. Knowing that this battery charger is supposed to operate for about 1 hour after the LED goes off, I left it to charge overnight.
However, I did attempt to see if the battery was charged several times in that period, but no luck, the camera would not function with this battery. However, the next day, one time this battery worked. But when I removed it from the camera,put it back in the charger and then tried it later, again it didn’t work. There must be some circuit in this battery that turns off/on the power for it. For I discovered that occasionally when it is put in the charger and removed, it may or may not provide power. By using a voltmeter, 4.2V should be across the – and + terminals after a full charge, but occasionally, it is off (0.6 v). Weird battery, maybe it is defective or maybe the CSGD charger is marginal.
In any case, the SONY technical support rep, who I contacted, had no idea of what this problem could be, has no knowledge of the characteristics of this battery.

This battery seems to have good life and will even take many pictures in the cold if it is completely charged before use. So far, it has lasted over a year for me. It is the same battery I use in my cell phone. Thus I have extra batteries for each depending upon the need. I have a cord charger for the phone and I have a small plug in charger for the camera (came with the camera). This enables me to charge both at the same time or have one charging in the car on trips.
