Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Lenmar DLC5L Lithium-ion Digital Camera/Camcorder Battery Equivalent to the Canon NB-5L Battery
Customer Review: works great, cheap alternative
Summary: 5 Stars
I purchased the Canon PowerShot SD790IS 10MP Digital Camera with 3x Optical Image Stabilized Zoomfor my mother for Christmas. One of the reviews I read said that the battery life wasn't all that great. So, I thought it would be nice to get an extra, but the Canon version was expensive. This was less than $7 with shipping, and after a month of using it, I can't tell the difference between it and the one that came with the camera.Customer Review: Great Battery Life!
Summary: 5 Stars
This little battery always surprises me! With my last camera, I learned to keep a spare battery on hand at all times, which I why I purchased this one (as a spare). When I have been using my camera a ton, I always check to see if I need to change my battery but this little battery lasts a LONG time! When traveling in Europe and taking 300 pictures a day, this battery didn't even need to be changed until midway through the next day! Pretty impressive!
I highly recommend this battery. Happy picture-taking!
Customer Review: Not worth the price
Summary: 1 Stars
Don't waste your money. This battery won't hold a charge anywhere near as good as a Canon battery. The warrantee is useless since you have to pay shipping to return the battery, and pay again to have the replacement shipped. Shipping both ways costs more than the Amazon.com price for this battery!
Update 7-20-2009: After commenting to Lenmar about the above, they did decide to send a replacement without me having to send the old one back, or pay shipping on the new one. Hopefully it'll work better.
Customer Review: Compatibility problem with Canon SD870 IS
Summary: 1 Stars
I recently bought 3 of these batteries believing that they were truly equivalent to Canon's NB-5L for my Canon SD870 IS camera. All of the 3 batteries exhibit the same symptom: Even right after being fully charged, it will cause a "Change battery pack" message on the camera. After re-inserting the battery, the message will go away. This has not happened to my Canon NB-5L battery, just these Lenmar batteries. Another problem: they don't last as long as the Canon battery.Customer Review: I'm not getting paid by Lenmar to say...
Summary: 5 Stars
... this battery last JUST AS LONG as a regular Canon Battery, if not longer! I am not sure if it will handle just as many cycles (that I will find out after a couple months) but for now, after 20 cycles, it still holds its charge very well and performs just as well as a Genuine Canon Battery. Don't be afraid to buy it- if you do get a dead or defective one be sure to contact Amazon.com ASAP- I'm sure by doing things cheaply Lenmar doenst have much of a QC program..
