camcorder batteries

When buying a camcorder battery how do i get a good price without buying a potentially explosive iece of junk?
Are any of the less expensive batteries any good? I got a sweet deal on my camcorder but now I want a decent battery and its going to cost almost what I paid for the camera.
How do I know if a battery is good? Are oem batteries that cost almost $100 the only decent ones?
Whether you are buying a “brand named” battery of a “non brand name” battery… A battery is a battery. All batteries are pretty much made in China and all you are paying for is a name… These billion dollar companies are just charging you for their names. The cheap non brand named batteries are just as good as the “brand named batteries” but they just don’t have a major label on them like “Sony” “Duracell” etc… etc…. Therefor you can buy a low priced battery that will be just as good as a High cost brand named battery. There is a company I but my batteries from http://www.needbattery.com they are a great company and have a 1 year warranty and 30 day money back guarantee on all of their products. Their prices can’t be beat either.
