Powerextra 2 Pack 7.4V 1800mAh Li-ion Replacement Canon LP-E8 Battery for Canon EOS Rebel T3i, T2i, T4i, T5i, EOS 600D, 550D, 650D, 700D, Kiss X5, X4, Kiss X6, LC-E8E

  These batteries are absolutely useless. I used my original Canon charger to charge both of them when I got them. Then I used each one until the camera (T2i/D550) informed me that the battery needed to be replaced. I re-charged them after that. I've done nothing with them other than that. Neither of them lasted as long as my original Canon battery, which is smaller in capacity and nearly ten years old. With them, I was filming time lapses. My original battery lasts for about 800 shots, while these only last for about 530. However, the battery capacities are claimed to be 1800 mAh each, as opposed to 1120 mAh for my original Canon battery. br>br>And after only the second charge, both of them are SWELLING UP, indicating that the cells have already failed - IN BOTH OF THESE CASES - and charging them is now dangerous. A swollen battery is a fire hazard as well as a stuck-on hazard. the- hazard to your camera. br>br>Spend the money on a genuine Canon battery. Although it is much more expensive, mine has lasted for ten years and is still going strong. These scumbags didn't even make it through two charges before becoming useless.

For only $15, you get two batteries. This is an incredible offer. You can get three of these for this price and never miss a shot due to dead batteries again. br>br>Let me begin by saying that I am unable to compare this to the Canon equivalent because I purchased my camera used and it came with a PowerExtra 1120 mAh battery. On the Canon T5i, the 1120 battery lasts about 2 hours of continuous use, with live view on almost the entire time. About 3 hours before the red light starts flashing, I record a straight video. And that's a used battery about which I have no idea the age or how the previous owner treated it. br>br>This 1800 mAh battery is a huge improvement. With a full charge and continuous use of live view, video recording, and other features, I get about 3-hours of battery life. Use time is 5 hours. The battery lasts about 5-hours without live view, continuous use, and only taking photos. 6 hours of non-constant use, but used on and off all day, one battery charge will last me the entire day and not be dead at the end of the day. I can sometimes go a week without changing the batteries if I use them moderately throughout the day. I shot several time lapses, each with about 3 hours of photos, and only one battery was needed. br>br>However, your battery's life span, as well as "battery life while using," is heavily influenced by your charging habits. They must be trained and then properly maintained, just like any other rechargeable battery, or they will have a short life and lifespan. When I get a new battery, I fully charge it before using it, then remove it from the charger right away. I keep using the battery until it's as dead as it can be without losing a photo opportunity. Place the battery on the charger and remove it as soon as it is fully charged. Never charge a battery just to "top it off," and never leave it plugged in overnight. I charge my phone in the same way, which trains the batteries to be "lazy" and results in a shorter battery life. And my phone's batteries always last longer than mine. br>br>So long as you use these batteries on a regular basis and charge them properly, you should be satisfied with your purchase. And I'm ecstatic that you can get six of these for the price of one Canon battery.

I purchased a two-bedroom apartment. a back-up plan up to the capacity of my Canon camera's battery The original Canon is still in my possession; the second one was discarded. With the original battery, I rotated one battery. After about two years, after 100 shots, he began to die; The Canon battery has a capacity of 400 mAh. I'd charge the camera for 10 minutes, pop it in, and it'd say it was fully charged, then die completely again. In March, I tossed that one and began using the second battery. Would charge up to 100% and then die. I've only been doing it for a couple of weeks. After being on the Canon charger all night, and with less than 200 shots, this happened while on vacation. It is no longer available; Niagara Falls, New York br>For this battery, the supplier contacted me. I explained the problems, timelines, and other details to the supplier, who offered me the choice of replacing the batteries or receiving a refund of my original purchase price, which I chose. The supplier responded quickly, addressed my concerns, and resolved the problem. br>As a result of the corrective action, the supplier's OVERALL rating has been reduced to 4-. stars.

These batteries maintain a strong charge for a long time. But I only use them to record movies. The batteries began to expand in the middle on both sides of the battery after 6 months. One of the batteries grew to be larger than the others. 050" and I couldn't fit it into my camera because it was too big. The second battery grew to a size of approximately. 045" To me, this indicates that with continued use, they could potentially blow up. I'm not sure because that's just my opinion. When a battery expands, I don't think it's a good thing. I contacted the seller and sent them photos, and they promptly refunded my purchase price, handling the situation admirably. Now I have to find a new supplier in the hopes of avoiding this issue in the future. I see Wabasi has a lot of positive feedback from other customers, so that'll be my next stop. A Canon battery costs $50, which is a lot of money.
