5.0 out of 5 stars nice and compact
The whole reason for buying an Elura is it's SMALL. Same thing for this battery.

It runs the camera for about an 45 minutes. Am I taping the whole time? No. The camera uses energy when on whether taping or not, so it would be silly to ask Canon to predict how many actual minutes of tape will be shot.

I carry a spare in my pocket. (They're small, so it's no...

1.0 out of 5 stars Impossible
To use the Elura 2 or 2 MC effectively you have to have the BP-422 or a third party battery. The standard battery is quite pathetic. If you have the big LCD screen open, you can literally see the battery life draining away as you shoot. Maybe 20 Min of life. Just sad.

1.0 out of 5 stars Battery life is a joke!, September 14, 2001
This review is from: Canon BP406 Lithium Battery for Elura 2 Series Camcorders (Electronics)
Unless you have 5 of these batteries, you cannot even shoot a 60 minute tape. It is preposterous -- to have this battery as the standard for this video camera.

2.0 out of 5 stars Low battery life for Canon BP-406, August 7, 2001

This review is from: Canon BP406 Lithium Battery for Elura 2 Series Camcorders (Electronics)
What I want in a battery is at least the recommedend life in real terms, in the camera during pause,record and playback. Canon stated battery life as 45 minutes to an hour. The first time I used the battery, after charging it overnight, I was only able to get fifteen minutes recording time before It was dead. To me, this is unacceptable.
