Battery power information for Nikon MB-D16

EN-EL15 battery

The performance of EN-EL15 batteries decreases in temperatures below 10 ° C. Make sure

the battery is fully charged and have a spare battery available if necessary. After heating, the battery can regain part of its original capacity.

AA batteries

Due to their limited capacity, AA alkaline batteries should only be used if there is no other option. The capacity of AA batteries depends on the type of batteries and storage conditions and can be extremely low in some cases; under certain circumstances, the capacity of AA batteries may suddenly drop and the batteries may stop working before they reach the end of their life. The capacity of AA batteries may drop at temperatures below 20 ° C. We do not recommend using these batteries at low temperatures
