5.0 out of 5 stars EOS 550D Battery (LP-E8) 27 Oct 2010
An excellent replacement to the manufacturers supplied unit being under half the price and the only apparent difference being the writing on the battery.

It takes just over 2 hours to fully charge with the charger supplied by Canon.

It works well in the camera. At a folk festival I was able to take well over 600 pictures on one charge (without using flash).

Overall the build quality of the battery appears to be as good as the official battery and is accepted by the camera, having once had the experience of a Sony pattern battery causing my Sony camera to say 'This is not a Sony battery' and shut down.

It's cheap enough to be able to have one or even 2 spare batteries to take with you, saving the need to carry the charger with you on holiday.

5.0 out of 5 stars No problems ! 16 May 2011
Bought this battery as back-up for the one supplied with the camera and haven't been disappointed. The charge lasts the same, if not longer than the canon battery supplied, so I am happy with the purchase. Longevity may be an issue, but even "branded" batteries are never faultless, so time will tell.

5.0 out of 5 stars EOS 550D Battery 4 Oct 2010
By Tony
This battery is a economical replacement to the manufacturer supplied unit.

Charging time is good taking around 2 hours to fully charge using the charger supplied with the camera.

Discharge time is also good and compares well with the manufacture supplied battery, using all the features of the camera I was able to take around 200 pictures and around 10 minutes of video on one charge.

Overall the quality of the battery appears to be as good as the official battery, only time will tell if the full lifetime is comparable to the original.

I have been filming a short film over the past few weeks and this battery was a life saver. I could film on it, then change battery, then charge this as I filmed. Read more

This did not work at all in my Canon 550D. Now I am certainly not going to assume that it is not the product that is advertised; especially seeing as there are many other reviews... Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars The Perfect Substitute
I bought this for my new 550D and I have to say, I am very impressed. The battery appears to be basically the same thing as the Canon version, but without the Canon logo. Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars A good substitute.
I have one other third-party battery that is terrible. This battery, on the other hand, lasts a similar length to the official Canon battery. Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars battery
The battery arrived very quickly and I believe has done the job it was bought for - it was a present as a second back-up battery.
