My current Canon battery savy 3.6 v, 680mAh 2.5 Wh (Li-ion). Is that the same as 900mAh on the Wasabi battery. What is the difference in mAH?

The "mAh" number is "milli-ampere hours", and is an indication of the ability of the battery to deliver electricity. The higher the number, the more electricity the battery can deliver from a charge. So, if those numbers are correct, the Wasabi battery would power your camera 32% longer than the Canon battery. In comparing batteries, one, of course, needs to compare batteries of the same size and voltage for the comparison to be meaningful.

I believe it just has a higher capacity. Prob a larger profile as well. The biggest thing is that these batteries (at least for my 500) is that they will not commincate with the camera i.e shows a red battery indicator with a red question mark inside of it. Not a big deal to me seeing how I know I always have a full charge on them before I head out. Between the 3 batteries I have a good 4-5 hours of power.

The battery is a Panasonic Lumix -- Osaka Japan and made by Panasonic Corp. It works OK, but there is an inconsistency with the advertised product and the actual product. The Amazon.com seller lists the battery at 3.7v --1000 mAh ,but the battery I have in hand is 3.6v 970mAh. Not a lot of difference and likely not really a problem, except it will require a recharge a little earlier that a 1000mAh battery would. Other than that, it looks like a good product.

Absolutely YES. Ive a pair of these batteries, and I use the charger that comes with them to charge one, and the original Canon charger for the second one to charge at the same time. In fact, the original Canon LP-E8 charger takes around 20-30 mins less to charge them compared to the Wasabi charger.

The package I purchased came with a 980MA Canon battery made in Japan and an aftermarket 1480MA not marked with any country of manufacture. After 15 months of use there is no difference in performance between the two batteries other than the 1480MA gives about 30% longer use and takes longer to recharge.

Dawn, these batteries are excellent! 1400Ah only means that they'll last longer than an 1100Ah battery. Which means my GoPro shoots longer. Get a bigger memory card! I routinely fill up my 32GB card on one battery!

I, too, am using the 1200 mAh battery in my Lumix FZ150, as well as the 7.2 v 895mAh. No problems at all.

These numbers are rating the capacity of the battery. As long as the voltage is the same there will be no damage to you device. The difference in capacity is like have a bigger gas tank it just means that the 1000mAh battery will last longer i.e take more pictures than a 700mAh battery.

They are - The NB-2L batteries are rate at 530mAH and the NB-2LH are rated at 750mAH; so the "standard" capacity bty is going to provide less shooting time. The voltages are the same for both, however. I can't give you a direct "this is how long this will last" comparison, but in a high current-draw device (like a digital recorder) the 2L will probably last 1/2 to 2/3 as long as the 2LH.I can tell you that in my wife's Rebel XT these batteries have functioned very well.

Absolutely Not! It's just a generic, dedicated battery w/ contact points that work on any Canon camera that calls for an LP-E8 battery. I've given this Wasabi battery power pack the best rating of any accessories I've purchased for my camera so far... They're still in my battery grip and have been using without having to re-charge or swap-out for 2 weeks now. Buy in confidence... Have Fun!

Thanks for the rundown and for the tip. SterlingTek SterlingTek's POWWER brand Canon Powershot SD790 NB-5L battery 1400mAH would be the way to go, but I'm penny-pinching, and 14. + 8. (shipping) for the SterlingTek is 12. more than the Lenmar, so I think I'll have to spin the wheel and hope I receive a non-dud from them. SterlingTek make a sweet little car charger for that battery also (15. + 8.) that would be very handy, but now we're talking fantasy purchases. I shouldn't be shopping, I should be digging myself out of debt.

The use cycle counter can be easily reset by by temporarily installing the battery into a Canon charger after fully charging in the Wasabi charger. The Canon charger will go through a short charge cycle then settle on green. The conditioning seems to be reset also. I've had these batteries for about six months now. Aside from the reset glitch there have been no issues.

I got 2 Wasabi batteries with an AC charger and have had the charger and 1 battery for some time. The other battery show charged and run the GoPro 2 in HD for about 4 minutes max. After it cost me some footage I will be many years in the opportunity to get again, it is in the recycle bin at a BestBuy , so charge and test the Wasabi batteries before you depend on them.

the oem is only 1080mha and does not last as long. This new battery has already outlast any other battery that i have had for my canon camera

Don't know as I use the battery normally in my camera instead of double A's, which seem to discharge faster than the rechargeable.

The 2600mAH is a stronger battery and therefore it should last longer than the 1800. I've used the 2600 for a number of photo outings and it preformed no differently than the Canon battery.

The only thing I can say about the difference would be the manufacturer. Both the original battery and this Wasabi battery seem to preform about the same as far as my experience goes. The included charger works in the car or in a household outlet with either the with my original GoPro battery or Wasabi batteries. I have been using these batteries for the last 5 months in my Hero 3 Black Edition and have not had a problem. I hope this helps!
