 Good life, fair price.Jul 31, 2003
By Rheumor
I have 2 of these, the one that came with the Optio and this one as a spare. I find when traveling it pays to have 2 fully charged batteries before starting the day, especially when the camera requires a proprietary battery such as this one. I get about 100 high res shots out of the battery with the LCD on, maybe 150 with the LCD off. I feel the price is reasonable.

 Geniune Pentax BatteryJul 12, 2004
I purchased the Pentax DL18 battery from Amazon...which was fulfilled through JR Music and Computer World. A few items of note:1) It is the Genuine and Authentic Pentax battery which was shipped with the Pentax S4i. 2) I would always suggest purchasing the genuine branded Pentax battery so you know what you are getting. You just don't want to mess with possible mismatches or where a generic is made to fit multiple applications. 3) If purchasing online from others...make sure you get the true thing. Know what you are buying. 4) Yes....the picture on Amazon is not accurate. It is not black...rather grey. I can assure you I received the genuine battery.

Excellent GenericJan 16, 2004
By kkrome25

This is a well-constructed generic equivalent (made by PowerSmart in Japan) to the Pentax DL18 Lithium Ion battery for the Pentax Optio S camera. Depending on which vendor you choose, the generic brand may vary. One of the reviewers for this battery is correct about the illustration above; it is not the battery. The battery you will get is gray. It measures 40.5mm x 35.4mm x 6mm. The three terminals are at the edge of the battery, recessed and offset to one side. It is also interesting to note that this DL18 is equivalent to the Fujifilm NP-40 battery. The battery fits snug but not tight inside the camera, so that if you accidentally undo the spring latch, it won't fall out. Functionally, it works great and lasts just as long as the original battery.

Pentax Optio WP BatteryFeb 24, 2006
By G. A. Lehman
the battery arrived quickly, safe, and sound along with other items. i would encourage EVERYONE to always have another battery for the Optio WP, especially when using it on vacation as both a general purpose camera and a snorkeling camera; most snorkeling shots will fire the flash and your camera recycle time-between-shots is improved greatly by a fresh battery. Happy trails and good shooting !

Perfect fitJul 29, 2005
By Hartmut Uschmann
This battery has the same dimention as a CF card, therefore fits in the widely available plastic cases for protection. Capacity is not very high, so keep some spares around.
