Battery Care Tips
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
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.

Sanyo Xacti VPC-E60 / DMX-C5 / DMX-CA8 — 3.7V Li-ion Replacement Battery (DB-L20)
This is a 3.7V, 700mAh Li-ion replacement cell for the Sanyo DB-L20 and DB-L20A battery. It fits the Xacti VPC-E60, DMX-C5(W), DMX-CA8, DMX-C4(N), and over 60 additional Xacti compact camcorder models. Voltage and form factor match the OEM spec exactly, including the 39.30 × 35.40 × 5.95mm footprint.
- Xacti DB-L20 platform fit: The VPC-E60 and DMX-Cx series share a common battery bay geometry and a single-cell 3.7V rail. All models using the DB-L20 or DB-L20A draw from the same connector pinout and BMS communication protocol, so one cell covers the entire range without modification.
- Bench tested on actual hardware: We ran this cell through charge and discharge cycles on a DB-L20-compatible body. The BMS accepted the cell without fault codes, and voltage held stable through the mid-discharge range before stepping down to cutoff at the expected threshold.
- First-install charge cycle on Xacti bodies: Insert the new cell and charge it fully via the camera body or OEM charger before your first recording session. Some Xacti bodies map their battery-remaining indicator against a learned discharge curve — skipping this step can cause the indicator to read erratically from the first use.
Why the Xacti VPC-E60 shows a dead-battery icon on a new, partially charged cell
The VPC-E60 reads battery state by comparing real-time cell voltage against a fixed threshold table stored in the body firmware. A new replacement cell arriving at around 3.5–3.6V — typical storage charge — can sit right at the edge of the camera's low-battery threshold. The body sees that voltage and throws a low-battery or dead-battery indicator before the cell has been calibrated. Charging the cell fully once via the camera body or an OEM-compatible charger pushes it to 4.2V and lets the firmware anchor its reference point correctly.
Battery percentage jumping erratically during Xacti playback or recording
This happens when the Xacti body's fuel-gauge algorithm tries to map the new cell's discharge curve against calibration data from a worn OEM cell. The voltage profile of a fresh Li-ion cell is flatter across mid-charge than a degraded original, so the indicator misreads state-of-charge and jumps. Running one full charge-to-cutoff cycle in the camera body lets the firmware re-anchor its voltage-to-percentage mapping. After that cycle, the percentage display should track steadily at normal recording draw.

Frequently Asked Questions
My Xacti VPC-E60 shows "no battery" or won't power on at all with the new DB-L20 replacement — what's happening?
The Xacti body performs a voltage presence check on startup; if the cell voltage reads below roughly 3.2V, the body treats it as absent rather than low. New replacement cells sometimes ship at a low storage charge that triggers this. Place the cell in an OEM-compatible charger or directly in the camera body connected to USB power, let it charge to 4.2V, then reinsert — the body should power on and accept the cell normally.
Shot count is noticeably lower than what I got from my original DB-L20 — is something wrong with the replacement?
Capacity is 700mAh, identical to OEM spec, but shot count is affected by more than raw capacity. On the Xacti DMX series, continuous autofocus, optical stabilisation during video, and LCD brightness all add draw well beyond the rated still-image benchmark. If you're shooting more video than stills, or running the LCD at full brightness in bright conditions, draw per session climbs sharply. Reduce LCD brightness one step and switch stabilisation off when shooting on a tripod — those two changes cut idle draw significantly.
The battery percentage on my Xacti DMX-CA8 drops fast at first, then seems to stabilise — why?
This is a voltage-threshold mapping issue, not a defective cell. The DMX-CA8 fuel gauge estimates charge level from voltage, and the first portion of a Li-ion discharge curve drops quickly before flattening out. A freshly calibrated cell shows this steep initial drop more clearly than a worn original whose curve has softened with age, so the indicator looks alarming but the underlying capacity is intact. Complete two full charge-and-discharge cycles in the camera body and the percentage display will track more smoothly against actual remaining charge.
