2 Stars Not Very Impressed
You get what you pay for with this… for a quick back-up battery, this may be a good alternative to spending $40+ on a spare canon battery, but I strongly urge anyone who gets this to have a better battery as their primary because it’s probably not going to be a reliable item for lots of shooting.
I bought this as a back-up, and while it initially worked well, it wasn’t long(maybe a week) before it started holding less and less charge, and then just died altogether. I wasn’t horribly upset, because I’d only spent a few dollars on it, and knew what I was getting, but it would have been nice if it had held out for longer than a month.
5 Stars Works fine in my Canon Powershot S80 (so far); does not last as long as OEM
Though the item description says 700 mAh, the unit itself says 1000 mAh. The item is branded “CTA”. This is the second generic battery I’ve used (I lost the first one). The first one was branded “POWWER” (sic), and though it was advertised as 1500 mAh, it didn’t seem to last as long as the Canon battery included with the camera, which I believe is 720 mAh.
Anyway, for less than half the price of a Canon brand battery, this is a pretty good deal.
Updated: After fully charging the battery for the first time, the first cycle did not seem to last very long. Still, for the price it’s still OK as a spare, though probably not good enough to rely on as your main battery.
5 Stars Just as good as OEM battery
For the price you aren’t taking a big risk… but I can assure you that my experience with this bayttery is very positive… every bit as good as OEM battery.

5 Stars Great product and OUTSTANDING SERVICE !!!
I called this seller after 2pm their time, asked my product questions and received helpful answers. Then I placed my order via Amazon, paid the normal shipping cost ($7 roughly) and then was AMAZED that the product arrived the next day to me in NC via Fed Ex !! OUTSTANDING !! And, I received what I ordered exactly as described. I’d buy here again in a heartbeat! thx very much!
5 Stars Great value Rebel XT backup battery
Bought in December of 2006 and still working great 2 years and counting. I shoot 200 to 400 shots on the average per month. This is my primary battery backup for my Rebel XT battery. Made in China
Pros:
- Cost 1/3 the price compared with the original brand.
- Original Canon battery cost more than 3 times but does not give you 3 times as much picture shots.
- Sits perfect on the camera
- Both batteries are still working perfectly so I cannot comment on which is more durable than the other.
-Fast charging
Cons:
- Does not last as long as the rating suggests.
5 Stars Canon 1700 NB-2LH Battery
What a bargain! I bought two of these as back up for my camera and they are just as good as the MUCH more expensive brand name product!
1 Star Didn’t get what I ordered (update appended)
I got a battery marked 1200 mAh. Furthermore, I have no idea what brand it is–there’s no “SterlingTek” anywhere on it. Contacted the seller and have heard nothing. Next went to the Amazon A-Z Guarantee–which just means I can return product with $5 credit for shipping and get my money back. I can’t say that I am happy, with seller or product or Amazon for using this seller. UPDATE: SF Planet just sent me an email and offered to send a replacement for free. So I would give them back a couple stars if I could.
1 Star It’s just a battery
There seems to be some variety as to the specific mAh of the batteries supplied. I received a lesser one but the vendor I selected, SFplanet, was apologetic and made sure the situation was properly resolved.
You can’t edit the stars, but I’d bump it up to a 3. No more though, it is after all just a battery.
