extra battery and charger for FZ1000MkII

[amxc]

I want one or two extra batteries and a charger for my new Panasonic Lumix FZ1000MkII. OEM parts are quite expensive (64EUR for the battery, 45EUR for the charger), as one might suspect.

Browsing internet, Duracell has compatible batteries for 33EUR and chargers for 26EUR

Some retailers in Spain have kits (1 dual charger and 2 batteries) for 60EUR. Similar kits in Aliexpress costs 25EUR

Any advice on that? Can I harm the camera if the battery is badly charged (I see no other danger)?

Thanks

I use third-party batteries with no problems, go for it and save a lot of money.

I agree with @Jeff15, I use 3rd party batts and have had no issues. I usually get mine off of Amazon.

Off-brand batteries, as recommended above. Virtually all are Chinese-made and many/most--I suspect--are cranked out by the same OEM with different labels.
