Item arrived in fine condition and with all the accessories. It's nice to have the flexibility to charge either in the car with a 12v outlet, or 120v mains power. Charges batteries fully in a reasonable timeframe.

Time will tell how durable the unit is (it doesn't feel quite as solid as the original Canon ones) but it's by no means chintzy. Appears to be a great value for the price, and I would recommend to a friend.

Sometimes, there are great bargains to be had and sometimes you get what you pay for. At under $4 I thought this was worth the gamble. Short story....I lost. It worked for ONE charge and then overheated the second time I plugged a battery in. It's Done. You win some, you lose some. I will keep looking for the next bargain.

As others have cited the charger feels a little slight in the hand but it charges canon and third party LP-E8s just fine. Just don't toss it around and you'll be ok. If you're on the wall just go for it, you won't regret it. Having the prongs recessed into the back of the unit so there is no cord to wrap up or lose is a nice feature. Charging in the car is also a bonus. Can't beat it for the price. It also charges faster than the canon branded charger that came with the t2i. Tested by charging two dead batteries from grip at same time.
