1.0 out of 5 stars Device randomly shuts off, June 18, 2009

This review is from: TWO LI-40B Li-42B Li-Ion Batteries 1200mAh for Olympus (Electronics)

I bought these as a backup for travel. I used these with a LI-42 and even when the batteries were fully charged the camera would randomly turn off when trying to switch modes or opperate the camera. Because of the poor performance of both batteries I'm going to need to purchase different backup batteries. I would not recommend these.

2.0 out of 5 stars Bad for Nikon Coolpix S600, January 5, 2009

I bought these to replace Nikon EN-EL10 batteries for my Nikon Coolpix S600. The specs say that they replaced Nikon EN-EL10, so I figured, why not, this product was one of the cheapest online. After owning these batteries for a few months, I have to say that they almost don't work with my Coolpix S600. They charge as usual, but work intermittently with my camera. Sometimes it won't turn on at all, and sometimes it will turn on only to shut off soon after. I might as well wait for the original battery to recharge in a few hours.

If you use this camera, I would recommend the actual battery as backup, or try one that is only Nikon compatible, not both Nikon and Olympus.

3.0 out of 5 stars Work fine, but a bit short on actual capacity, October 13, 2008

A previous review was skeptical that the "1000mAh" rating was for each battery. I'd agree -- I did try one of the two batteries, and I'd estimate it lasted 1/3 to 1/2 as long as my original Olympus battery. The original Olympus Li-42B that came with my camera isn't even a full 1000mAh. It's possible 500mAh each is right, but even that might be a tad optimistic.

For the price, I have no complaints, and they're fine as backup batteries in case of emergency. But you might consider a single battery with a larger capacity could be more useful.
