User Ratings and Reviews

5 Stars Great Off-Brand Battery
This battery works great and has a long life in my camera. Even with a fair amount of review on the screen after shooting my pictures my battery lasts for a good amount of shooting time and recharges quickly. I swap between the Canon battery that came with the camera and this one. I don’t use the flash very often so this may attribute to the really long life I get out of it.

5 Stars prefect and cheap
I bought this pack for travelling purposes and I can tell you it is awesome! lasts even more than the canon battery, comes with an adapter and you can recharge both batteries and only for $14.95

5 Stars Opteka LP-E5 batteries
I bought 2 of these Opteka LP-E5 batteries as back-up to my expensive Canon brand batteries. After using them for over a month now, they work just a good and last just as long as the expensive Canon batteries. I will not be buying any more expensive Canon brand batteries when I can buy 3 Opteka batteries for the price of 1 Canon battery.

5 Stars Worked great!
Having a new camera for taking pictures of museum artifacts (primarily), I needed spare batteries. Problem was that the OEM battery was ~$70 USD each which would reduce the number of spares I could pack. Also, the OEM charger was AC only, so would not allow for recharging while in transit. Opteka to the rescue! Inexpensive batteries and a dual AC & DC charger fit my needs exactly. I used the batteries for all day shooting of museum aircraft (which means lots of flash usage) and they performed at least as well as the OEM battery. Recharging was quick also, being less than 90 minutes in the car, so I could always have charged batteries on hand. Excellent value and performance overall, highly recommended for the amateur photog, perhaps even for the pro.

4 Stars Works great
I bought this for a new Canon T1i and it works great. The car charger is a nice touch. I can’t say that it lasts twice as long as the Canon battery, but it lasts at least as long.
