5.0 out of 5 stars Another excellent battery from Eforcity, November 3, 2007

This is the third time I've purchased these replacement batteries for my Canon camera. Despite what others say, every battery I've purchased from Eforcity works exactly the same as the original Canon batteries, which are considerably more money. I've put a lot of miles on the batteries -- baseball games in the heat of August, freezing cold football games in November and long hiking trips -- I don't think I've ever drained a battery fully. Thousands of photos taken; charges quickly, lasts a long time.

These are great -- the shipping is more expensive than the batteries themselves.

I'd rate this 3 stars now since they sent a replacement for free.

The aftermarket battery they sent to me was defective.

The plastic battery housing was too thin where the plastic clips are on the sides. So it did not fit in my charger, or my Canon G3 camera. Neither device recognized the battery because it didn't make proper electrical contact. So I returned it.

Eforcity shipped fast and shipping was a reasonable $2.98.

The Eforcity return policy has the customer pay shipping both ways, even on defective products.

It has a 1 year warranty while most name brand BP-511 batteries are covered for 3 years. This battery has no name brand, it says "Made in China". We'll see how the return goes.

UPDATE: March 25,2008
The seller "Eforcity" came through with a replacement battery free of charge and the 2nd one works fine. Fortunately they didn't want the faulty one one back so there was no return shipping.

Be aware there is a large market of offbrand BP-511 batteries made by different companies and sold by various venders. 1 week later this is being sold by a new vendor. So reviews may not be applicable if they ship a variety of products under the same name.
