It fits the Minolta DiMAGE E40 and DiMAGE E50 compact digital cameras. Slot it in where your original NP-900 sat and it draws from the same contacts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cul class=\"bpw-desc-bullets\"\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiMAGE E40 and E50 compatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    Both cameras share the same battery bay dimensions, contact layout, and 3.7V single-cell architecture. One cell covers both models without adapter or modification.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBench tested on actual hardware:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    We cycled this cell through the DiMAGE E40 body. The BMS accepted the cell on first insertion, voltage held stable under combined LCD, sensor, and lens motor draw, and the charge circuit completed normally via the OEM charger.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFirst-cycle conditioning on the DiMAGE E40\/E50:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    Run the first full charge from inside the camera body using the OEM charger or AC adapter rather than a standalone charger. The DiMAGE's BMS maps battery-remaining readings against an internal discharge curve — doing this first cycle in-body lets the camera calibrate the indicator to the new cell accurately.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003chr class=\"bpw-desc-divider\"\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eWhy the DiMAGE E40 battery indicator reads full then drops suddenly mid-shoot\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eThe DiMAGE E40 uses a voltage-threshold method to estimate remaining charge — it reads cell voltage and maps it to a bar indicator rather than tracking coulombs directly. A fresh replacement cell has a slightly different discharge curve than a worn original, so the camera's thresholds can misfire early in the cell's life. The indicator may show full for most of a session, then jump to low with little warning. One full charge-discharge cycle in the camera body recalibrates the mapping and the indicator stabilises from the second cycle onward.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eCamera body shows no battery detected after inserting new NP-900\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eThis happens when the cell voltage sits slightly below the DiMAGE's minimum recognition threshold out of the box — common on cells that have been in storage. The camera's battery detection logic checks for a voltage floor before it will boot. Place the cell in the OEM charger first and bring it to at least a partial charge before inserting it into the camera body. Once voltage clears the threshold, the camera recognises the cell and powers on normally. A 15–20 minute charge pass is usually enough to push the cell above 3.5V and clear the detection check.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"BatteryWeb","offers":[{"title":"Warranty 1 Year","offer_id":43333834670170,"sku":"BWCS-NP900-1","price":22.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 2 Year","offer_id":43333834702938,"sku":"BWCS-NP900-2","price":25.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 3 Year","offer_id":43333834735706,"sku":"BWCS-NP900-3","price":27.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0674\/4775\/0746\/files\/BW-CS-NP900-1.webp?v=1778213259","url":"https:\/\/batteryweb.com\/products\/minolta-dimage-e40-replacement-battery-37v-600mah-li-ion","provider":"BatteryWeb","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
