Not sure, it came with paperwork indicating it was made by BatteryBiz. Not sure if they make these batteries for Duracell or not. The battery did not come in Duracell packaging, and it was stamped with white lettering rather than the gold lettering shown. Either way, I charged this up for a few days, put it in the camera and it sat for two days. When I went to turn on the camera the battery was drained! Not acceptable for me since the Canon batteries would last forever when the camera was off. I sent it back! Amazon was great about refunding my money, they are great for customer service!

This is an awesome battery, and I've taken a ton of pictures on the first charge and still going. Plus I've been using the flash a lot too. If you need a new battery for your camera, I definitely recommend getting this one; It's cheaper and better!

I wanted a backup battery (BP-512) for my camcorder and this one fits perfectly. It came almost fully charged, too. It was little strange that it didn't come in a manufacture's box, but in a bubble wrap only. It fits and it works - and that's all I'm insterested in! Thanks, Amazon.com! You REALLY makes shopping very, VERY, simple!

Researched my options and decided to try this battery. It works great in my camera and last a long time, but every since I put it in my charger the charger says my old original Canon battery is "charged" when I know it isn't. So, I just leave my Canon battery in the charger overnight and that seems to be working o.k. I haven't had the battery long enough to determine long term ratings. I would recommend this product with a little apprehension.

When ordering this item I looked at the picture and what I was sent didn't look like the picture. I already had 2 old batteries one that looked like the picture which the battery last longer The ohter one I had is like the one you sent me and this battery doesn't last as long. I was hoping it was the longer style battery.
