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.

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.

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.

I bought these batteries for my mother as a Christmas gift. She has an Olympus fe-220 camera, which is on the list of compatible cameras, but they did NOT fit into her camera. They were too big! We had to send them back. If you have the same camera, beware if you buy these particular batteries.

Not sure if these are 1000 mAh each or 500 mAh each. Product listing has little description and no marking on the battery. They seem to charge very fast so I suspect they are 500 mAh each. But the price was low so it's not so bad. Haven't used them much yet so not sure how long they last compared to my other batteries.

Battery works but does not last as long as the olympus battery. For the price, it is well worth it. I carry both in my camera case.

After i bought my olympus stylus 9000 camera, the site presented these 2 batteries as replacement batteries for this camera. They dont fit in this camera. Why would Amazon present these batteries as " people who bought this item also bought these items" when the are the wrong accesories for the item that was purchased. Anyway, im out my money because they dont fit in the charger that came with the camera or the extra charger that i bought because that too is the wrong charger for my camera, and it also presented itself as the proper one. sheeeeeshhh. :(

I bought these batteries and another brand (Maximal Power)for my digital camera when the original battery started to fail. These batteries are nearly useless. With flash, I can take about 10 pictures before it's empty, and with out flash, maybe 30 (compared to 200+ with the original battery). I would not even consider these batteries as back ups. Spend a couple dollars more and get yourself a much more useful battery.

Satisfaction
As soon as I wrote about my problem with one battery, Eforcity sent me a new one. Great Service!

Ritz Camera advertises this item at over $50. I got two of them for about $8. They work just like the original.
