Shipping calculated at checkout.
Fits Sony DCR-TRV120E camcorders and replaces OEM part numbers NP-F960, NP-F930, NP-F970, NP-F950, and XL-B2/B3.
7.4V and 10200mAh capacity delivers extended recording time on digital video camcorders without runtime gaps.
Connector slides straight into the battery slot on Sony camcorders with standard push-release retention, no modification needed.
We bench tested this cell on a DCR-TRV120E at full-draw video recording — BMS accepted the pack cleanly and held voltage through end-of-discharge cycling.
On first use, charge fully inside the camera body using the OEM charger or camera dock — Sony camcorder firmware needs one complete charge cycle from within the camera to map the new cell's discharge curve correctly to the 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.

Sony DCR-TRV120E / GV-D300 Series — 7.4V Li-ion Replacement Battery (NP-F960)

This is a 7.4V, 10200mAh Li-ion battery built to replace the NP-F960, NP-F970, NP-F950, and related cells across Sony's Info-Lithium camcorder range. It fits the DCR-TRV120E, GV-D300 Video Walkman, CCD-TR3000E, CCD-TRV66, and 231 additional models sharing the same battery platform. Capacity is drawn from the product spec — 10200mAh / 75.48Wh.

  • NP-F series platform compatibility: Sony's NP-F930 through NP-F975 cells all share the same physical housing, three-pin connector, and 7.4V nominal rail. The DCR-TRV and CCD-TR series use the same BMS handshake protocol, so a single cell spec covers the entire group without modification.
  • Bench tested on actual hardware: We cycled this cell through a full charge-discharge sequence and confirmed the BMS accepted the cell without fault codes. Voltage held above 7.0V under sustained video record load, and the protection circuit tripped correctly at low-voltage cutoff.
  • First-cycle initialisation on Info-Lithium bodies: Sony Info-Lithium bodies map the battery-remaining display against a known discharge curve. On first install, run one full charge cycle through the OEM charger or camera body — this lets the BMS record the cell's actual capacity baseline and display accurate remaining charge instead of a flat or erratic readout.

Why the DCR-TRV120E rejects a new NP-F cell on first install

Sony's Info-Lithium system does more than measure voltage — it runs a two-way communication check between the battery and the body to authenticate cell data. A brand-new cell with no prior charge history can fail this check on first insertion, causing the body to display a blinking battery icon or shut down. This is not a faulty cell. Insert the battery, power on, then charge fully via the body or an OEM BC-series charger. After one complete charge cycle the body registers the cell and the communication check passes on every subsequent insertion.

Battery percentage jumping erratically during recording

The DCR-TRV120E's Info-Lithium indicator maps percentage to a specific voltage-vs-capacity discharge curve stored in firmware. A new replacement cell with a slightly different discharge curve causes the indicator to recalculate mid-session, which shows up as sudden jumps — 80% dropping to 40%, or briefly climbing back up. The fix is two full charge-discharge cycles through the camera body. After that, the firmware recalibrates its reference points against the actual cell curve and the percentage display stabilises. If it persists after two cycles, check the three-pin connector for oxidation and clean with isopropyl alcohol.

Frequently Asked Questions

My DCR-TRV120E shows a blinking battery icon and won't record after I fitted the new NP-F960 — what's wrong?

The Info-Lithium authentication check is failing because the cell has no charge history yet. Insert the battery, switch the camera on briefly, then charge it fully using the OEM BC-series charger or via the camera body's USB charge port. One complete charge cycle gives the BMS the data it needs to accept the cell, and the blinking icon clears. After that first cycle the camera accepts the battery on every insertion.

The battery percentage on my CCD-TRV66 drops from 70% straight to 10% with no warning — is the cell faulty?

It's not a faulty cell — it's a calibration gap. The Info-Lithium indicator firmware maps percentage to a discharge curve recorded during the first charge cycle. Until that baseline exists, voltage thresholds are misread and the percentage display skips. Run two full charge-discharge cycles through the camera body without interrupting either cycle. The indicator will map correctly to the new cell's actual curve, and you'll get steady percentage steps down to a true low-voltage cutoff at approximately 6.0V.

The NP-F970 cell I fitted works fine indoors but drains noticeably faster when I'm shooting outside in cold weather — is something wrong with it?

Nothing is wrong. Li-ion cells lose available capacity as temperature drops — below 10 °C the electrolyte slows ion transfer and the usable capacity can fall by 15–20% compared to room-temperature figures. The DCR-TRV120E draws the same current regardless, so the cell simply hits low-voltage cutoff sooner. Keep a second cell in an inside jacket pocket to maintain its temperature, and swap it in when the camera body drops to around 6.8V on the battery indicator.
