Hello!
I am looking for a spare battery for my SLX/2. The one i got with the camera doesn't llok to be the otriginal one, because there is not a single Rollei mark anywhere on it. Specification as reported are: NiCd Battery, m1A medium acting, made in Germany. The fuse reads as a m1a/250V.
Now, in the camera user manual i read that the original battery has an M0.8A fuse. The battery charger i have is a Rollei type G.
Now i have found here:

what seems to be the origianl Rollei one, quite expensive, and here:

obviously a much cheaper option.
Question is: are both fuse(1 and 0,8 ) ok with charger and camera? Is there something i should not do?

thanks a lot, folks..i am new to the Rollei world, perhaps i am asking stupid questons, but i suppose one has to start somewhere.

Never mind the missing "Rollei" on the battery (there were several versions).

The fuse is easily changed, but the 1A should not be a problem for the SLX (or the charger).

The second offer you found will just replace the NiCad-cells in your old batters ... it is not a complete battery.

Avoid? Avoid toying around with manually rewound film (a good way to blow the fuse).
