holds full charge for months in camera bag
I bought this original Pentax battery for my K10D when I got the camera a few years ago. They rock! I can leave them in my camera bag for months, then change one during a furious hockey game picture taking, and it is fully charged and powerful. Can't go wrong with this battery.

OEM PENTAX IS THE WAY TO GO.......
You won't notice the difference between the "less expensive" batteries out there made in China at least not while they're working....you can get 2 for less than one of the "Pentax" batteries, but you WILL be replacing the less expensive batteries much, MUCH sooner than the "Pentax" battery. I still have the original battery that came with my K10d. I bought the DBG-2 Battery grip and it came with 2 batteries, BOTH the third party batteries died at the same time, they will no longer hold a charge....the original D-LI50 is still holding a charge, and a full one at that....so in the long run, if you go cheaper, will you be saving money, I think not. Pentax has a great pricepoint to begin with, why would you skimp on something that could ruin a trip, or ruin some lovely equipment with sub par batteries?
And yes, this review is pointed to the dude that gave 1 star because of how "expensive" they are. Lets hope you dispose of them properly.
Later everybody.

Great Battery
I already owned this battery (came with my Pentax K20D), but wanted an extra one for the long shoots. There was no question as to which battery I would purchase. Lasts many houre before needing to be recharged, or replaced when recharging is not an option.

Great price for a great battery!
I considered a couple cheaper off-brand batteries for my Pentax K10D before finally deciding to just go ahead and get this official Pentax battery, and I'm glad I decided to go with this one. A lot of off-brand batteries either don't let you take as many shots or lose power quickly when left in the camera unused.
This battery holds a charge for a very, very long time, allowing you to easily power through several hundred shots without needing to be recharged, and it also keeps its charge for a very long time even when just left in the camera sitting on the shelf. I've used this battery in cold, hot, and even WET conditions when shooting portraits next to a waterfall, and it's worked perfectly every time.
The construction is heavy duty, the battery does what it's supposed to do well and without any problems, and comes with a reliable Pentax warranty.
Why put yourself through the headaches of trying to deal with off-brand companies when you can just get this instead?
PROS:
Heavy duty construction
Holds charge well over time
Works great in all conditions
Works for 500-700 shots or more
CONS:
None!

Pentax Cameras HistoryPENTAX Corporation (before 2000 known as Asahi Optical Joint Stock Co.) was founded in 1919.
 In 1952 they manufactured first Japanese 35mm SLR camera with a cloth curtain focal plain shutter and shutter speeds range from 1/20 to 1/500 sec. It was called Asahiflex I. But even more revolutionary was their Asahiflex II (1954), having has the world's first instant return mirror system. Before that a photographer had to manually bring down mirror after having taken a picture. This system made rapid shooting possible with a SLR.
In 1957 Asahi Optical Joint Stock Co. carried out another coup - they used of a pentaprism in the viewfinder of the Asahi Pentax SLR. The pentaprism made eye-level viewing possible and provided correct images. It was also the first time that the name Pentax was used on a camera. The very name, as you might have guessed, is derived from “PENTAprism reflex.”
