5.0 out of 5 stars Works well for me
I purchased this 2 years ago and 2 kids later it still holds a charge and works well. I rotate it with the battery that came with my Canon and I have had absolutely no problems with it. I was worried considering the other comments here but I believe this was the battery that Best Buy would have sold me as a backup so I just ordered it online from Amazon for much cheaper.

1.0 out of 5 stars Don't buy this battery!
Digipower's website claims 1120mAh battery.
Amazon claims 900mAh battery.
Packaging claims 850mAh battery.
Packaging says: "Replacement for CANON NB-5L.
NOWAY - HOZAY.
So what moron is going to read this and buy this battery.
Canon Powershot SD900 specifies 1120mAh battery, and it sells
only this value.
Don't get snarfed by...

Shame on these bozos! ...and BestBuy for selling this crapola.
If you go into a BestBuy and see one of these batteries, rated for 850mAh (see back of package)...tell them they are no
da*ned good. They should pull them all...right now!
But they won't. See for yourself.
I hope I'm not being too laid back here.

1.0 out of 5 stars not worth it, January 25, 2008
This review is from: DigiPower BP-CN5L Replacement Li-Ion Battery for the Canon NB-5L for use with Canon SD700IS, SD790IS, SD800IS, SD850IS, SD870IS, SD880IS, SD890IS, SD900, SD950IS, SD990IS, SD970IS & SX200IS Digital Cameras (Electronics)
The battery doesn't even last 1 year before it stops taking a charge and dies. Don't waste your money.

1.0 out of 5 stars Worthless, February 22, 2010

It will hold a charge for a very short period of time, maybe a couple of hours. Don't waste your money. There is no comparison with Canon battery which works well. The Digipower battery is simply awful.

5.0 out of 5 stars worth the $13, September 5, 2008
This review is from: DigiPower BP-CN5L Replacement Li-Ion Battery for the Canon NB-5L for use with Canon SD700IS, SD790IS, SD800IS, SD850IS, SD870IS, SD880IS, SD890IS, SD900, SD950IS, SD990IS, SD970IS & SX200IS Digital Cameras (Electronics)
Ceap and effective alternative to running out of power. I've used it for well more than a year with no trouble. I don't notice the 850mah (haven't verified) being a problem. it works fine and gives me more than enough time to get the original charged. The price is fine. If you don't have your camera yet, you may not realize how small these batteries are and how easy it is to keep one with you.

i bought this battery as a backup for my canon battery, camera sd900. i rotate the two batteries and it has lasted 3 years. i take hundreds of pictures a month, so i feel it has held up very well. it has only recently started to lose it's charge faster. until the past month, it would hold a charge just as long as the canon would. the canon is still going strong, so yes, the canon does last longer. but, i feel that this battery has been great for the 3 years i've used it.

So far it's worked great as a back-up battery for my camera. I've used it for a month now. I was a bit leery not buying the actual canon battery, but this has done just as well.

I ordered the DigiPower battery but was sent the wrong product, a Power2000 battery. Amazon will not stand behind this order and send me the correct battery. Amazon customer service claims the DigiPower is not available but it is still listed in their currect merchandise but with a higher price than when I ordered. Poor customer service.
