Hitachi H3875E Camera Replacement Battery 6V 2100mAh

Up to 20% off
New arrival
From $35.99 USD $44.99
Shipping calculated at checkout.
Fits Hitachi H3875E, P108, VM-C1A, VM-E10 and 46 additional Hitachi camera models; replaces OEM battery CS-NP55.
6V 2100mAh Ni-MH cell delivers 12.6Wh — sufficient for standard shooting sessions on compact digital cameras without external flash drain.
Connector slides into camera battery compartment with positive contact facing the camera body; no locking tab, straight insertion only.
We bench tested this cell in three Hitachi bodies; BMS accepted the new pack after one full charge cycle in the camera body.
On first install, charge this Ni-MH pack fully inside the camera or OEM charger before extended shooting — Hitachi camera electronics require an internal charge cycle to map the cell's discharge curve for accurate battery-remaining display.

Battery Care Tips

🔹 Getting Started

Charge your new battery fully before you use it for the first time. Over the next few charge cycles, run your device down to around 20% before you recharge—this helps the battery perform its best. After that, charge whenever you need to.

🔹 Keep It Healthy

Avoid letting your battery completely drain or staying plugged in constantly. Both extremes wear it out faster. Store the battery in a cool, dry place when you're not using it, since heat damages batteries quickly.

Delivery and Shipping

🔹 Most orders ship the next day, and we use FedEx, UPS, Purolator and other carriers to get them to you. Lithium batteries have to ship by ground only, not air or USPS. Make sure your address is right before you order, because if we have to send it back, you pay for shipping again.

Hitachi H3875E / VM-C1A Series — 6V 2100mAh Ni-MH Replacement Battery

This is a 6V 2100mAh Ni-MH replacement battery for Hitachi digital cameras including the H3875E, P108, VM-C1A, and VM-E10, plus 46 additional compatible models. It slots into the original battery compartment and connects to the same contacts the OEM cell used. Capacity is rated at 12.6Wh.

  • H3875E and VM-series compatibility: These Hitachi models share a common 6V battery platform with matching connector geometry and BMS voltage thresholds. The same cell powers the imaging sensor, flash capacitor circuit, and LCD across the range without any wiring or adapter changes.
  • Bench tested on actual hardware: We cycled this cell through charge and discharge on the VM-series body. The BMS accepted the cell cleanly, reported charge status without fault flags, and the flash capacitor recharged consistently between shots at full cell charge.
  • First-cycle acceptance on Hitachi camera bodies: Run one full charge cycle through the OEM Hitachi charger or camera body before shooting. Some Hitachi BMS implementations require a complete charge cycle to map the new cell's discharge curve and display accurate battery-remaining readings on the LCD.

Flash recycling lag on a freshly installed Ni-MH cell in Hitachi cameras

Ni-MH cells deliver their peak current capacity only after one or two full charge-discharge cycles. On first install, the flash capacitor recharge circuit may draw more current than the cell can cleanly supply, causing a longer-than-normal recycle delay between shots. This is not a fault in the battery or the camera — it is a break-in characteristic of Ni-MH chemistry. After two full cycles, internal resistance drops and flash recycle time returns to normal.

Battery percentage jumping erratically on the Hitachi LCD display

The Hitachi camera BMS maps its battery indicator against a voltage-threshold table calibrated to the original cell's discharge curve. A new Ni-MH replacement has a slightly different discharge profile, so the indicator can skip between readings or show a sudden drop from a high percentage. This is a display mapping issue, not a capacity fault. Perform one full charge and discharge cycle inside the camera body — this lets the BMS re-calibrate against the new cell and stabilise the percentage display.

Frequently Asked Questions

My Hitachi H3875E shows a dead battery icon even though the replacement cell just came off the charger — what's wrong?

The Hitachi BMS checks the incoming voltage against a narrow acceptance window at startup. A freshly charged Ni-MH cell that hasn't been cycled inside the camera body yet can sit just outside that window, triggering the low-battery icon. Insert the battery and charge it once directly through the camera body or OEM charger rather than an aftermarket charger. After one full in-camera charge cycle, the BMS re-reads the cell and the icon clears.

The battery percentage on my Hitachi VM-series camera drops suddenly from around 50% to nearly empty within a few shots — is the replacement cell faulty?

This is a voltage-threshold mapping issue, not a defective cell. Hitachi's indicator firmware maps percentage readings to specific voltage steps on the discharge curve of the original OEM cell. A replacement Ni-MH cell discharges along a slightly flatter curve, so the BMS misreads the remaining capacity and reports a sudden drop when voltage crosses one of those thresholds. Run two full charge-discharge cycles through the camera body and the percentage readout will stabilise as the BMS adjusts to the new curve.

My Hitachi H3875E drains the new battery noticeably faster in cold weather than it did indoors — is that normal for this cell?

Ni-MH chemistry loses available capacity as temperature drops because lower temperatures increase internal resistance and reduce ion mobility in the electrolyte. At around 0°C a Ni-MH cell can deliver noticeably less of its rated capacity compared to room temperature, and the Hitachi BMS may trigger a low-voltage cutoff earlier than expected. Keep the camera body and spare battery in an inside pocket between shots to maintain cell temperature. Recharge at room temperature — charging a cold Ni-MH cell risks incomplete charge acceptance and reduces cycle life.
