Bower XBGND40 Digital Power Battery Grip for Nikon D40/D40X/D60/D3000/D5000

This is a product that is pretty darned good! The USB battery charger that came with it is highly inadequate and barely will charge one battery at a time although it takes almost two days to accomplish that. It was 8-10 times faster to charge the batteries one at a time using the original Nikon charger than the USB box which is cute, but practically useless. The only issue is there are no directions for removing the original battery cover, but once that became accomplished, the handle fit right on there, and everything was all right!

I was vastly disappointed in this product, the battery door broke the very first time I attempted to install my camera batteries...This is a totally disgraced product from Bower and they should pull this out of stock as it is garbage. I should have returned it for a refund but I was so upset, I threw the d#%^ thing away. I purchased this as a gift and ended up buying another grip by a different manufacturer. Total waste of money!!

The grip is different than pictured.The new model loads batteries from the side. I bought this specifically because it loaded from the rear but that is no longer the case. The picture needs to be updated.

We love taking pictures and sometimes we would run out of charge quickly for are Nikon. When we bought the Power Battery Grip it has been a life saver. It last twice as long and makes the camera look so professional. I would recommend it to anyone who needs to go on long trips or just needs to take lots of pictures. We just went on a 7 day Cruise and we only had to charge it once. Excellent product!

I bought this product and it was sent to México City, it arrived on time and in well conditions, the installation was easy even if the instructions brochure was not well designed ,the product has good finishing and fitted well the camera, good value for the money.
