It fits both models because they share the same voltage rail, form factor, and BMS communication protocol. Capacity figures come from the product data: 1800mAh \/ 6.66Wh.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cul class=\"bpw-desc-bullets\"\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLuxmedia Z35 and Z160 compatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    Both cameras draw from the same 3.7V cell with identical connector pinout and BMS handshake. One replacement covers either body — no hardware differences affect fitment or charge acceptance.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBench tested on actual hardware:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    We ran this cell through charge acceptance, BMS handshake verification, and discharge profiling on compatible camera hardware. The BMS accepted the cell without rejection flags and the protection circuit triggered correctly at low-voltage cutoff.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFirst-cycle initialisation on the Z35 and Z160:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    Some PRAKTICA camera bodies require one complete charge cycle performed inside the camera itself — not via an external charger — before the battery-remaining indicator reports accurately. Do this before your first shoot to avoid misleading percentage readings mid-session.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003chr class=\"bpw-desc-divider\"\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eCamera showing dead battery indicator on a partially charged NP-120 replacement\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eThe Luxmedia Z35 maps its battery indicator to voltage thresholds calibrated against the discharge curve of the original cell. A new replacement cell has a slightly different resting voltage profile until the BMS learns it. This mismatch causes the camera to read a partially charged cell as depleted. One full charge-discharge cycle inside the camera body typically resolves the indicator error permanently.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eFlash not fully recycling between shots late in a session\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eAs the NP-120 cell approaches the lower end of its charge state, the capacitor recharge current required between flash shots causes a voltage sag the camera body detects. The Z35 may slow flash recycling or suppress it entirely to protect remaining charge. This is not a fault in the replacement cell — it reflects normal end-of-charge behaviour under high-draw flash conditions. Recharge the battery before the next shoot to restore full flash cycling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"BatteryWeb","offers":[{"title":"Warranty 1 Year","offer_id":43333670207578,"sku":"BWCS-ZM800MC-1","price":23.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 2 Year","offer_id":43333670240346,"sku":"BWCS-ZM800MC-2","price":26.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 3 Year","offer_id":43333670273114,"sku":"BWCS-ZM800MC-3","price":29.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0674\/4775\/0746\/files\/BW-CS-ZM800MC-1.webp?v=1778213032","url":"https:\/\/batteryweb.com\/products\/praktica-luxmedia-z35-replacement-battery-37v-1800mah-li-ion","provider":"BatteryWeb","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
