Updated hähnel Extreme Batteries

Mirrorless cameras are notorious for draining batteries in a hurry. They’ve gotten better but due to how they work, mirrorless will always be more power hungry than a DSLR. hähnel has recently updated many of their Extreme Battery with even more capacity in addition to their industry-leading protection and durability.

hähnel Extreme batteries have a unique silicone core that helps absorb shock to the battery internals as well as providing thermal protection in cold weather. hähnel only uses UL-approved battery cells that are carefully selected for their voltage stability and extended cycle life.

The latest HLX-E6NH (for Canon), HLX-EL15HP (for Nikon) and HLX-XZ100 (for Sony) Extreme batteries have been boosted to 2,400mAh capacity! This extra capacity means you get from 6% to 20% more images and video with hähnel Extreme batteries compared to OEM, at a price point that’s far more attractive than OEM batteries.

I’ve been using HLX-EL15 Extreme batteries in my Nikon cameras (DSLR and mirrorless) for four years now. They consistently outperform the EN-EL15 (which is a great battery to being with) – especially when temperatures drop. With winter fast approaching, you’ll want to equip your camera with a hähnel Extreme battery for better performance in the cold. The extra performance helps you make the shots that count – don’t miss out on that once-in-a-lifetime image because your battery couldn’t perform.

hähnel Extreme batteries are also available for Fujifilm HLX-F125, Nikon HLX-EL14 and Olympus HLX-H1 and HLX-OX1. Check camera compatibility at www.hahnel.ca
