How many actuations with one battery

[cyron123]

Hi guys,
How many actuations do you have with one full battery and with the Hasselblad H3d II. I have only 70 actuations and the battery is empty!?!? I bought this battery 3 month ago and haven't use it...

Is the battery broken?
Thank you for your opinion !

did you buy it new with warranty or second hand ?

Second hand and the seller said: " it is new!" :-(

You may just need to reset the battery. instructions can be found here

Not sure how it is for the H3D-II, but I've had to do this with batteries on my H4D. I had one battery I bought used that only did 30ish actuations til it was drained, but after resetting with those instructions closer to 200. Good luck!

i'm waiting for the new H5D batteries ! but I have to buy the charger too.

You do not need the new charger for the H5D battery. I have an H5D battery I use on my H4D, and my old charger charges it just fine. It just takes longer than the new charger. Hasselblad says the same somewhere but idk where that info is right now.
