Canon CB-2LW Battery Charger (Black)

Trying to save a few bucks for cheap charger, end up paid more than double. The first one no brand charger were $19 with shipping and all end up $25 and it did not work. I charge the battery for 3 hrs and the battery still not charged. Throw in the trash. This charger appeared that no body ever bought them because there were no customers review what so ever. The 2nd charger is also a cheap one but it has 2 customers reviewed and was a positive review and cost $12 shipping and all was $16. This cheap charger charged the battery fine. Except, it big. It about the same size as the first charger. In that same week I decide to buy the Canon charger $36 with shipping and all $40. The Canon charger win hand down on all counts. Well designed, slim and fast charging. The other no brand chargers bigger than the Canon charger twice the size. I wished I had bought the Canon charger from the start. Oh well live and learn.

My original battery charger mysteriously disappeared while it was packed in my suitcase during my recent travels on the airlines. When I returned home, I did a google search to find a replacement. The item is exactly as stated in their ad. Its is a genuine replacement item. I received it on schedule and the price great. The price varies with different sites so shop carefully. Some sites have a low price and later they phone you to say they are out of stock and attempt to switch you to a replacement (not genuine), so be careful. Its the old bait and switch technique that some sites use. I am very satisfied with the product and would not waste my time with generic chargers to save a few bucks. I would give this vendor five stars.

I lost my original Canon digital camera battery charger and needed a replacement, so I ordered the manufacturer's version despite it's greater cost because of the handy charging light. It's hard to see, but just above the battery slot, there's a small light that turns red while you're charging it, and then it turns green when the battery is fully charged. This simple added feature makes this charger worth the extra cost to me as I hate wasting energy unnecessarily and also can't stand it when I think something's charged long enough, but in fact it's not. This light eliminates the guessing game. I'd give it 5-stars if it were less expensive, but it's worth the difference.

I really like this Canon charger. The prongs fold back so it makes for easy, flat packing in my bag or suitcase. This is my second one. The first I had for 3 years, but was accidently lost by a friend that borrowed it. So I got a replacement. No questions in my mind as to what the replacement should be. It charges fully and fairly quickly. Glad to be back in business with my Canon charger. Thanks Amazon for the quick ship.

No 'charging' indicator light...

This charger does exactly what it was supposed to do. I really like the fold-away electrical prongs -- that makes it fit in the camera bag nicely without scratching or damaging anything else inside. The LED indicator glows yellow while it's charging, and green when the battery is charged.Some third-party batteries and chargers reputedly don't quite fit properly (i.e. they're not exactly the right size /shape to mate properly with the original equipment). Buying the genuine Canon charger costs a bit more than some other brands, but to me the reliability is worth the extra cost.

Bought this charger along with another battery for my Canon Rebel XT DSLR. The only "problem" with it is that it has a tighter hold on either my old or new battery when charging them compared to my old charger. But it still charges both batteries just fine with no issues. Who cares if I need to apply an extra pound of force to get the batteries in or out? It works perfectly.

This item seems to working great. IT WAS VERY SLOW IN ARRIVING however, took almost 3 wks, and was sorely missed at a function that I ordered it for. I am a regular customer of Amazon but wish they would eliminate the USPS as a shipper and use UPS or FEDEX. I've started NOT ORDERING from places that ship by USPS because they are so slow and most of the time items are untrackable.
