Yes is due to bad contact, I haven't got mine. Just that I read about complaints like this when I was reading reviews of it. So was just wondering how common it is among D90 users with MB-D80.

Never encountered such a problem on my MB-D80 too.

Loss of power as in? The grip becomes not responsive? Or battery power drains?

New D90 user reporting

Dont flame me as im a newbieee

i dont see newbieee.. i see upgrading..

It could be rough handling.. Maybe they dropped it.
It's really hard to imagine how it can spoil when the build is so darn solid.
Before I forget, the Internet is still the Internet. Don't believe everything.

So expensive? I can get it around RM 450 to RM 500.

3rd party may be a good replacement too if can't afford.

Lower than RM450 for a new one? Sos please, interested to know

Haven't got one for myself, was reading reviews about it on the internet. Researching a little before buying .

imho, there is only a slight difference between the LSD batts and the usual old skool NiMH, in my experience when using GP Recyko+ and GP NiMH 2700, i find that, NiMH obviously lasts longer coz higher capacity if u use it in one go. if u keep it for a week after charging and then continue to use it again, a lot of power would be gone already. On the other hand, recyko being a LSD, it keeps the power so u can keep it as spare in case u just need to use your camera for one or two shots once awhile. However, when doing a photoshoot for a event or smth, i notice that recyko charges my flash slower than NiMH. Just a lil bit slower. Not to say that much difference. I think of the NiMH like a big aggressive guy with much strength but not as much value as the LSD being a wise business man.

Thats just from my personal experience la. No lab testing or wtv
