I bought this battery because it has a better price then the standard Canon battery and thought I would give it a try as my backup battery.

At first it performed better then the Canon NB-2LH battery that came with my Rebel Digital XTi.

But now after alternating between the Canon battery and the EFORCITY battery for about 10,000 photos I'm having the following problems.

When I first turn on the camera it takes longer to turn on and the display screen on the back is just white with no readout. Sometimes the readout never comes on and I have to turn the camera off and back on. This has never happened with Canon NB-2LH Battery ever. Also when focusing the lens will often jump past the point of focus and then hunt and that's using a Canon 70-200 2.8 L Lens that has NEVER given a problem EVER with the regular battery.

My camera equipment is just too expensive to gamble on this battery anymore. I am buying another Canon NB-2LH battery as a backup and throwing this one in the trash.

I needed to have spare batteries to capture my friends wedding. I ordered two from Eforcity and shipping time was really fast. The batteries last much longer than my original. They were much heavier too so I think thats a good thing. No complaints, I got my for about $ ten bucks each, I think this was the best price at the time.
I would recommend this brand, gets the job done.

I've had this battery 11 months. It has seen limited use and I have alternated it with my Canon battery that came with the camera. They have both seen similar use.

This battery worked great for the first 2 or 3 months. After that, it severely degraded to the point that now I can only take 10 pictures or so before it needs recharging.

In contrast the Canon-supplied battery takes several hundred photos with the same charge and still retains it's charge.

This battery is way to unreliable. I've lost several photo opportunities because of it. I'm tossing it and replacing it with one from Canon.

This item does not fit the Canon Rebel XT as listed in the title. Nor does it look like the image shows. Unfortunately, the seller will not contact you back, regardless of how many times you try to reach them.

So far so good. Works great and holds a charge. Just what I wanted!

I bought two of these as backups of my canon battery and suppose they should work with my new canon G9. But none of these two work in G9. One can not even be charged with Canon NB-2LH charger (indicator quickly turns green indicating fully charged, but actually not); the other seems normal when being charged, but none of them work in G9, the camera simply can not be turned on when this replacement battery is in. It sounds cheap, but since it does not work at all, it actually is not worth the time and effort to give a try.

I used this product for canon rebel xti camera. This product worked good for 1-2 months, in fact it's life was comparable to that of the canon battery pack. But after 2-3 months its life just plummeted and now i can take 10-15 shots and that even without flash. It barely lasts to fire 2-3 shots with flash. I would say go for a original canon battery even if you are looking for a back-up cell.

Bought this as a back up battery to the Canon supplied battery that came with my XTI. Seems to last just as long. Stays charged in the camera. I will most likely purchase another. Update as of August 2008.Battery goes dead in camera. Lasts about 1/4 the time in operation.Wasted money.Gets 0 stars.

I got this battery for my Canon XTI last year, and it works great! Never had any problems with it, and now that I have a Grip I am ordering some more! I also ordered it from Eforcity directly, not the other stores you can buy from, not sure if that makes any difference!

I bought two of these batteries in September for my Rebel XTI. By December, one battery was completely dead (would not charge) and the other is down to only a few minutes of useful time before it dies. It's cheap, but you get what you pay for.
