Busted my 40D twice

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on August 29, 2009

Verified Purchase

I bought a couple of these to use in my 40D and ended up sending the camera back to Canon to get the shutter replaced on 2 separate occasions. Within minutes of using this battery for the first time at a wedding, I was getting ERR99 on my LCD. Upon calling Canon, they had me send it back and replaced the shutter mechanism under warranty. I didn't suspect the batteries at that point, but about a month after getting it back, I popped in one of these batteries again and within minutes I was getting ERR99 again with the same shutter locking sound as before. At that point I made the connection that it was probably the batteries. Luckily it was still under warranty and Canon replaced the shutter mechanism again (thanks Canon!), and I haven't used these batteries since. Getting your shutter replaced out of warranty costs over $150, so please please spend the extra $40-50 and get the genuine Canon batteries. It's just not worth the risk, especially when you need your cameras to be reliable all the time.

Mis-representation of battery rating!

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on October 12, 2008

Verified Purchase

I purchased two of these, and I guess the old adage of "buyer beware" when faced with an unbelievable price is a lesson to learn again. The two BP-511's I ordered came promptly, but on first use in my video camera at an important marching band competition (for which we were representing the school as the official videographers) the battery dropped rapidly from full to half to quarter is 6 minutes, causing us to stop filming and losing precious minutes of the 10-minute performance.

Don't bother with these... they are certainly NOT 1800 mAh as advertised (and in fact, the batteries are almost half the weight of my original BP-512's, 1.5 oz vs. almost 3 oz, indicating a serious lack of battery material packed inside the normal size casing).

I thought I was buying a OE Cannon battery and found it to be a generic but it seems to charge and work OK...

Great bargain of a battery

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on February 24, 2008

Verified Purchase

I've run these through a couple of cycles now and they appear to hold up as well as the OEM battery did (in other words, quite well). It was painful to pay as much for the shipping as for the battery, but when taken as a whole, it was still a fantastic bargain.

Its a battery, it works and it fits my camera. A little more staying power then the orginal Radio Shack unit. Not much more to say.

Great organization - KastarUSA - quick delivery and when a couple of weeks later we found that one of the batteries wouldn't hold a charge, I emailed direct to them and they sent another no charge. Very satisfied.
