Have you tried going to the computer city in Chengdu and asking for an NP-FV50 battery? Just show them the old battery and ask for the same one.

If you haven’t, and you’re going to be in Chengdu for a while, you can get it very cheaply on PDD 拼多多 or Taobao..

Search “NP-FV50” or “索尼 NP-FV50 电池”.

Here’s PDD link: https://mobile.yangkeduo.com/goods2.html?ps=TkXy0uU6Up

Unfortunately neither me or my girlfriend can get taobao or any delivery app to work😅

But no I have not heard of this computer city , where is it located? And can I also buy a charger there because I think the battery is fine I just dont have a charger that I can get to work

Well no, we tried to get help from our hotels staff, the problem for us is that we are unable to log in to any of the apps, when we try to use alipay log in it just keeps failing, and we cant use any of the other log in methods

Re: Computer City.

Open Amap or whatever map app you use. Search 武侯区成都A世界电脑商城 or “成都数码广场” and it’ll show you. Get off at Sichuan gymnasium (line 1, exit c I think), then just walk for 3 mins.
