Is anyone using Globalmediapro RED batteries on Epic?

[Jean Déraps]

I'm considering getting some of these to use with my Epic: Link->Globalmediapro RED batteries

Has anyone been using these, and, if so, any comments? Problems?

Many thanks

Jean

Would love to know this too. They look great.

Are these "approved" batteries? Ie wouldn't void warranty?

I'd like to know how they compare to

I have one for my Red One, I even think I have the "old" non -R version because I only see DC on the monitor instead of the percentage available.
Besides that it works without problems on the Red One.
For the Epic I cannot say.

They work just fine... Got the 160Wh version.

They work perfect on my Red One, no clue on Epic.

190Wh and 230Wh ones too! I think that's the most I've seen.

I just did a test today on an Epic-M with the Globalmediapro Li160S-R battery. It works perfectly fine and the voltage info appears in the monitor...just like a RED Brick does. I can't say yet how long it will last since I shot over 2 hours with it and 2 out of 4 LEDs on the battery level indicator are still lighting up! I can imagine easily getting over 3 hours of operation (if not more!) out of it.

This might sound like a dumb question - but can those be charged on a RED battery charger or would you need a different one to charge the different brand battery?
