Sony BP-V190 Replacement Battery 14.8V 12800mAh Li-ion

Up to 18% off
New arrival
Sale priceFrom $259.99 USD Regular price $315.99
Shipping calculated at checkout.
Fits Sony PMW-EX330, PMW-F5, PMW-F55, PMW-400 broadcast cameras; replaces OEM part BP-V190.
14.8V nominal, 12800mAh capacity delivers 189.44Wh — sustains extended field shoots on single charge.
Sony L-series mount; slides into vertical grip or block charger with positive terminal forward; locking tab seats flush.
We bench-tested the BMS on first insertion into a PMW-EX330 body; voltage regulation held steady through full discharge cycle, no early cutoff.
On initial use, charge this cell fully in the camera body itself rather than an external charger — Sony's BMS needs one body-charge cycle to map the new cell's discharge curve for accurate remaining-battery 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 PMW-EX330 / PMW-F5 / PMW-F55 — 14.8V Li-ion Replacement Battery (BP-V190)

This is a 14.8V, 12800mAh (189.44Wh) Li-ion battery pack replacing the Sony BP-V190. It fits the PMW-EX330, PMW-F5, PMW-F55, and PMW-400 professional camcorders. These are broadcast-grade bodies used in ENG and production environments where battery capacity directly affects how long a crew can shoot without stopping.

  • PMW-EX / PMW-F platform compatibility: The EX330, F5, F55, and PMW-400 all share the same V-lock adjacent BP-series battery interface and 14.8V power rail. The BMS on each body expects the same voltage thresholds and communication protocol, which is why one cell covers the entire platform.
  • Bench tested on actual hardware: We cycled this cell through a full discharge-charge sequence on an EX330 body. The BMS accepted the cell without error flags, reported charge state correctly, and held steady voltage through high-draw record modes including 4K output on the F5.
  • First charge cycle on the PMW body: Run the first full charge cycle with the battery seated in the camera body rather than an external charger. The PMW-series BMS maps the new cell's discharge curve during this first cycle — skipping it can cause the battery-remaining indicator to read inaccurately for the first several uses.

Why the PMW-EX330 reports incorrect battery percentage on a new cell

The PMW-EX330 uses a coulomb-counting BMS that builds its reference model during the first few charge-discharge cycles. A new cell with a slightly different internal resistance profile will cause the camera to misread remaining capacity until that model is updated. This shows up as a percentage that drops sharply early in the shoot, then barely moves for long periods. Two or three full cycles — charge to 100%, discharge through normal shooting — recalibrate the indicator to the actual cell curve.

The PMW-series bodies run an authentication handshake on insertion. If the cell voltage has dropped below roughly 12.0V during storage or shipping, the body may refuse to wake the battery at all and display a no-battery or incompatible warning. Remove the battery and place it in a Sony-compatible external charger for one full charge cycle first. Once it returns to full charge, re-seat it in the camera body — the handshake will complete and the body will recognise it normally.

Frequently Asked Questions

The PMW-EX330 battery indicator keeps jumping around — it shows 60% then drops to 20% within minutes. Is the cell faulty?

The cell is almost certainly fine. The PMW-EX330's coulomb-counting BMS builds its discharge reference over the first few cycles, and a new cell with a slightly different internal resistance throws off that reference immediately. The percentage display will stabilise after two or three full charge-discharge cycles run through the camera body. Charge to 100%, shoot until the body warns of low battery, then recharge — repeat twice and the indicator will track accurately.

My EX330 feels noticeably warm during long recording sessions and the battery drains faster than expected — is this a battery issue?

The camera body itself generates significant heat during sustained recording — the sensor, image processor, and codec engine all draw current simultaneously on top of the camera's base load. That combined draw is higher than spec-sheet shot counts suggest, because those figures are based on intermittent shooting. The battery is performing correctly; the drain rate reflects actual sustained load. If the body is unusually hot, check that the ventilation slots on the EX330 chassis are clear — restricted airflow forces the processor to throttle, which increases current draw.

The replacement BP-V190 ran fine for two shoots, then the EX330 stopped mid-recording with a low-battery cutoff at what looked like 30% remaining.

This is a BMS calibration issue, not cell failure. The PMW body cuts power when terminal voltage drops below its safety threshold — if the BMS's capacity reference is still misaligned with the actual cell curve, it can trigger that cutoff earlier than the displayed percentage suggests. Run one more full cycle: charge completely, then discharge through uninterrupted recording until the body shuts itself down at true low voltage, then charge fully again. After that cycle, the cutoff should align with the displayed percentage at around 10–12V terminal voltage.
