I asked Dynacore directly about them, it's only 130Wh model that has integrated charger (SI nomenclature).

$280 for 130Wh model and $230 for 150Wh model without integrated charger.
Since I need them just for powering monitor on my Steadicam Flyer LE I went for even smaller 89Wh model, they gave me $160 price which I find hard to beat.
I think that if you need only one battery, then go for SI. Otherwise, standalone charger is better.

I was interested in SWIT but I didn't like their gray finish, It looks stupid on black Flyer with black H1. Despite cosmetics, I did quite a lot internet investigation for Dynacore, haven't found nothing bad.

And, oh, I ordered them directly from factory. TNT took four days to ship them from China to Croatia - lightning fast in my opinion, for me, China is on other side of Earth.

Hi Mohamad,

These Dynacore batteries are very good, and in my opinion even much better then those from Swit. I own a couple of Omega Power Systems batteries sold by Bebob in Germany next to my older BP-L90A's from Sony. They are just the same as the ones from Dynacore, but with a green back instead of an orange one. Both batteries contain high-end Sanyo cells.
The one with the integrated charger is very handy. You can charge it everywhere, where you can find a power outlet. The batteries also have a Power Tap connector (exept the one with the build-in charger) to power other equipment.
Bebob delivers them to the biggest German broadcasters ARD and ZDF. In my eyes that says enough.
