Yes I saw the recall notice the other day but it is not for all EN-EL15 batteries only certain batches.

According to Thom it's two thirds of recently made batteries

Wendy has the same battery in the Nikon V1 (She is v happy with it and getting super pix too) so we now have 3 batteries between two cameras and provided our RV (motorhome) is on full hook-up we can recharge. I was interested to see that 110 volts gives no problems with recharging Nikon batteries or my laptop etc. D800 still working well so looks like no serious damage but will talk to Nikon on my return next week.

Nikon have replaced the faulty battery. Notification came giving day new battery would arrive by UPS courier. New battery arrived. Open packing and remove new battery. Pack faulty battery in provided packet hand to courier.

All worked very fine, job done, well done Nikon!

My D800 is working perfectly after resetting factory defaults that has been no long term damage so far as I can see. Took pix at family wedding last weekend and exposure spot on and even did some 6400 ISO at disco after main wedding.
