I don't know why, but it's the best September 29, 2006 R. C Stoecklin (New York, NY United States) 11 out of 11 found this review helpful
For some reason, Canon- branded batteries are better than those sold by actual battery manufacturers. Don't just look at the $$/mAh ratio, consider safety, reliability and longevity. In these categories, the Canons rock. I bought a G1 camera about five years ago, and the camera is toast, but the battery still works like a charm in my 20D. Others start out with 1400 or even 1700 mAh, but fail after six months - read the reviews here on Amazon.com.
Don't settle for off-brand batteries September 30, 2005 Richard J. Martin 10 out of 11 found this review helpful
When my fisrt Canon battery expired...after a long use, I purchased a knock-off. What a mistake. It lasted about 1/3 as long as the Canon, and, of course, it died at just the wrong time, during a wedding. I went back to a Canon product and "it just keeps on ticking". It cost a little more but the security and longevity are well worth it
Excellent, long lasting battery pack September 25, 2005 N. Connolly (Boston, MA) 8 out of 8 found this review helpful
Could it be that this battery is actually running right by the Duracell bunny. Somebody listened to the complains of us photographer and really improved the quality of this battery. In the past the Canon batteries got drained quickly, especially by the use of flash, not this one though. I was able to do shoots for days without the need to charge my battery. Well done!
This one is the best - Don't buy "equivalents"! February 17, 2006 R. Meigs (Webster, NY USA) 7 out of 7 found this review helpful
I made the mistake of buying two "1400 mAH"-rated knockoffs when I bought my PowerShot Pro1. Both knockoffs TOGETHER don't equal the capacity of the Canon original! Also, they won't hold a charge during storage; the Canon will. So spend the bucks and get a battery you can depend on!

I've tried using aftermarket batteries with my 20D, and none lasted more than a year, while the original Canon battery still works fine. So, I decided to replace my replacement battery with the Canon one. Yes, it's still a bit pricey, but it works better than the cheaper ones.
