pentax branded and cheap batteries, and no I don't remember the
brand. I've noticed that the K-1 uses batteries up a LOT faster. My
thought is that third party batteries are really cheap and bringing a
couple as spares doesn't add a whole lot of weight in your luggage and
can make life a lot easier

It's used, and they're showing a stock photo. I wouldn't buy it either.
The issue with lithium rechargeable is that they age from the date of
manufacture. Charging cycles have much less effect that on other
batteries with other chemistries such as NiHM or NiCad while simple age
will effect

I wouldn't buy that battery unless there is a reliable full-refund return
policy (like with Amazon Prime). As the proverb says: "I am not rich
enough to buy cheap things".
A lot of stores are sloppy with posting specs and photos of their
products, especially small accessories.

These are the offbrand batteries I use. So far, so good. I can't tell
any
Have a look at this:
https://www.lensauthority.com/products/pentax-d-li90-battery
It *says* it's a Pentax battery ("from Pentax") but it doesn't show
the bottom of the battery where the branding is. The specs given check
out but the price makes me very suspicious. I'm not trying this one!

but it doesn't seem to be available in the U.S. I could buy a couple
in London, but after the currency exchange rate they would be barely
cheaper than
to OEM batteries for me after that. Damn, they are pricey. They
are $90 Can here.

Can anyone recommend options for third-party batteries for Pentax? I'm
specifically referring to the D-Li90 type used in pretty much
everything from the K-7 up to the K-1.
There are a lot of options out there with varying specifications and
user reports vary even more wildly. One resourceful
I am certain Auld Tymer Digital PDMLers would have had an over dose of
this topic which is on some (20) World Class Photo Forums like Pentax,

as long as you buy them from good sources

Is anyone using third party batteries in their K-7/K-5? The prices
are considerably* lower than the Pentax branded ones but I don't want

Another vote for 3rd party batteries. Knock wood, I've not noticed any
problems with the batteries I've bought on ebay.

I guess the question to be asked here is 'has anyone had any problems with
Pentax batteries'?

I can't say anything about third party batteries in the K5/7 but I've
been using a flashpoijnt battery in my K20D. It gives about 1/2 - 2/3
the number of shots as the OEM battery at about 1/4 the price. So it
makes economic sense.
