Is anyone using this battery in their HMC150 or 70? Is IDX a reliable company?

I don't remember it being listed last time I was looking for a hi capacity battery. Says it has the chip. Thanks.

I'm using both AB and IDX on my cameras and equipment. IDX is every bit as reliable as AB. Given a choice between the two, I'd pick IDX over AB...cheaper, more reliable and higher power capacity.

How's the battery working out for you? I'm looking at picking up one more battery for my HMC150 and this is less expensive than the panasonic route.
