Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Canon LP-E8 Battery Pack for Canon Digital Rebel T2i and T3i Digital SLR Cameras (Retail Package)

Customer Review: A review of the *genuine* Canon battery
Summary: 5 Stars

W. Stohler gives the Canon LP-E8 battery a very negative 1 star because he believes he received a fake. So, what's the one star for? He's not rating a genuine Canon battery if his allegations are true. But what should he have done? Maybe immediately contact Amazon to investigate? And return the fake?

I doubt that Amazon would knowingly risk their reputation by selling fake Canon batteries. But in regards to off-brand vs. brand, over the past 25 years, I've never had an off-brand battery last as long as the genuine. Most notably, when I had two batteries for a Sony video camera, one off-brand and one genuine Sony, I found them together after not using them for about two years. The off-brand battery would not even charge, with the charger only flashing its red light. The Sony battery charged-up fully, and is still in use today.

And, in another comment I wrote recently on a third party, LP-E8 battery I bought two months ago. When I attempted to charge it in the Canon charger, the charger continually flashed yellow. I placed it in the third-part charger, and it went immediately to green, though I knew it needed a charge. The third-party charger was questionable, too.

Poorly made batteries can short inside, melt, and even start a fire. Camera manufacturers will not do warranty work on a camera than failed because of an off-brand battery being used.

Will I try to always buy brand: yes. Will I fall for off-brand occasionally: yes, but primarily as back-up batteries that I would seldom use.

I always recommend genuine batteries -- there are very sensitive electronics in that expensive camera of yours.

If you suspect you got a fake, return it.
