1.) Great Price, no complaints

I have had no problems with this battery whatsoever. I was a tiny bit hesitant to use a battery that was not from Canon but for the price it was impossible to resist. I saw a $70 1500 mAh Canon battery at a well known electronics store after I purchased this $13 2000mAh battery. I smiled. The battery charges fine, holds a charge fine and for $13 you cannot beat it. Someone told me they wouldn't buy a battery like this because they don't trust the quality and prefer to get the Canon battery and not deal with worrying about it failing. To that I say buy 4 of these for about $53. You save almost $20 and even if one or two fail you still saved your self money and gained a battery or two. That being said I only bought one and have had no problems with it.

2.) Great Extra Batteries

These batteries work very well...and are at least as good as the stock battery for a fraction of the price. If you are doing a lot of DSLR video like I am, you will find that battery life goes pretty quickly and you need additional batteries when you are in the field. I highly recommend you try these, I keep two spare charged batteries with me when I am in the field, especially if I am capturing video.


3.) Works Fine With My T2i

I had used Opteka batteries with my T1i and they seemed to perform just like the Canon batteries so I took a chance on them with my T2i.

So far they seem to be working just like the Canon batteries with no communication functions crippled. I'll order a couple more soon.

4.) accessory battery

it is nice to have an accessory battery, besides the one that came with your Canon SLR, and at a very good price. Battery holds an equally long charge as the Canon battery.

5.) good battery for great price!

if you are looking for a backup battery for canon t2i get this one instead of Power2000 LP-E8. i have both and this one last almost the same as the canon brand. Power2000 LP-E8 last half of others and i thought this is what i get for what i paid, but i was wrong. this one is good. extra $4 might save you another 200 shots or more.
