Hi Guys
Just recieved an email from Nikon UK Support advising of a battery recall EN-EL3 - They state that there is a risk of fire whilst charging (five cases of this happening).
You are probaby aware of this if you have registered your camera with Nikon - thought I'd mention it.
In the email they say replacement takes 5-10 days AFTER recieving the old battery. I told them I was a pro (PMSL) and they agreed to send me out a new battery first..then I send back the old one.
Only a few batteries are affected and the full list can be seen here..

So get your fire extinguishers at the ready! Seriously be careful...
Cheers
