After a recent spring cleaning, I found that I had somehow lost an MX-980 charging dock. I went crazy trying to find where I put it. Weeks later, I discovered I had accidentally been using it as my MX-990 dock! I never even realized they were compatible. Mystery of the missing MX-980 dock was now solved.
So, the purpose of this thread is to share dock and battery compatiblity information.
CHARGING STATIONS
MX-5000 cradle (6V, 2A) -------------- Compatible with MX-5000 only? My MX-950, 980 & 990 do not fit into this cradle.
MX-880 cradle ----------- Theoretically compatible with MX-880, MX-990, MX-950, MX-980 and MX-990. I am unable to test to confirm.
MX-890 cradle ----------- Theoretically compatible with MX-880, MX-990, MX-950, MX-980 and MX-990. I am unable to test to confirm.

Per ChatGPT on looking for replacement NP60 batteries: ------------ When looking for an NP-60 battery with the longest life, you'll want to consider the capacity, which is measured in milliampere-hours (mAh). A higher mAh rating typically indicates a longer battery life. Here are a few options known for their higher capacity:
1. **Wasabi Power NP-60**: Known for its reliability and often comes with a capacity of around 1300mAh, providing a good balance between price and performance. 2. **Power2000 NP-60**: This brand also offers a higher capacity option, usually around 1300mAh, known for its long-lasting performance. 3. **Lenmar DLP003**: Typically rated around 1200mAh, this battery is another solid choice for a longer lifespan.
When choosing a battery, it's also essential to consider the brand's reputation for quality and reliability, as well as user reviews and experiences.

The URC BATT-ER1 should be the OEM model # for these NP-60 sized batteries.
