1.0 out of 5 stars Should have spent a little more on the Olympus original., November 18, 2004

By	Matthew M. Pierce "Matt P." (Wichita, KS United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I was really debating whether to try this inexpensive battery out. I finally thought, how bad can it be? It's just a battery right? Well, I charged it up and put it in the camera and was able to get one or two shots off. Then the battery continually shuts the camera off. Like it is pulsing or something. I would turn the camera on, it would shut itself off... it was like the battery would run out of charge each time I turned it on. I put the original battery back in and everything works normal. Dumb move on my part to throw the packaging away before fully evaluating. If you want to take a chance, you might get a good one... but keep your packaging just in case!

1.0 out of 5 stars Short life span, July 18, 2005

By	Ramon Marcelino "Monching" (Des Plaines, IL USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

For less than $20 against $50 for the original Olympus battery, I bought 2 of these thinking Delkin Devices is a mainstay in computer/electronics industry. But after only 2 months, one battery already refused to charge. The other battery is still charging but doesn't last as long as the Olympus. I think they are really rated at 1300mAh only instead of the advertised 1500mAh. So now, I'm getting myself another Olympus BLM-1 as the reliable backup. Save your money and go for the original.

I bought two of these batteries in September 2004. One worked a month and went bad. The other one is still working so far (Nov 26, 2004 I think I'll go back to buying the Olympus battery even though it costs more.
