Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Lenmar DLC5L Lithium-ion Digital Camera/Camcorder Battery Equivalent to the Canon NB-5L BatteryCustomer Review: Decent value as Canon backup battery Summary: 4 Stars
Ordered this as a backup battery for my new Canon SD870IS. Used it on a 2-week Disney World/Disney Cruise vacation (no, not rich....just lucky recipient of huge discounts!!). The Lenmar doesn't seem to hold a charge as long as the original Canon battery. I'll estimate that it still lasts about 2/3 as long as the Canon. But, at 1/3 of the cost, it still presents a good value.
As usual, Amazon delivered quickly and at a great price!
Customer Review: The first one was a dud, the replacement is working fine. Summary: 3 Stars
The first Lenmar battery shipped would not take a charge in the charger -- it always showed fully charged -- and it would not power up the camera.
I tried contacting Lenmar's on-line customer service regarding the situation, but received no response.
Thankfully, Amazon's return policy worked flawlessly. Amazon shipped a new Lenmar battery immediately upon my reporting the problem. The new Lenmar battery works fine.
Customer Review: mAh rating inaccurate Summary: 2 Stars
I agree with those who wrote that the Lenmar lasts only about 1/4 as long as Canon original. I am using this in the Canon Powershot SD790 IS.
I have now owned it and the Canon original for about a year and a half. The Canon is holding up well, still holding a charge and providing
long-lasting power. The Lenmar has declined in its ability to provide power. It's inexpensive, but ultimately not worth all the battery swapping.
Customer Review: Long-lasting power! Summary: 5 Stars
I use these batteries with my Canon Powershot SD700, and then I upgraded to the SD800is. Works like a charm and I actually prefer it over the OEM battery as it lasts a lot longer (compare milliAmp/hr ratings). On a recent vacation to Hawaii, one of these batteries lasted almost 2 days before the warning light started flashing. This included ~250 pictures (maybe 40% w/flash), some movies, and power consumption on reviewing the pix.
Customer Review: You can trust Lenmar batteries Summary: 5 Stars
I use several Lenmar replacement batteries for a handful of point-and-shoot digital cameras. IMO, there is no reason to pay for the excessively high-priced original equipment batteries. Lenmar batteries are the equivalent in form, function and performance. Whether I expect to shoot 100 or 1,000 pictures, I will always use -- with confidence -- my Lenmar batteries as the primary batteries in my cameras or as the back-up batteries.
