Shopper : Is this the charger for Canon 40D and what is battery for the 40D? Thanks!WANDA A : Yes, and the battery is a canon Li-ion Battery Pack.MICHAEL S : Yes this is the charger for the 40D and 50D. The battery I use is the Lenmar LIC511. I believe there are other batteries that will work in this charger. You can do an online search for them. Hope this helps?MITCH R : As the Adorama page for this product suggests, I would check your 40D manual first for accurate information, check with Canon directly or do a general Google search for the specified charger/battery combination for the 40D. I own a 50D, so I imagine both (battery Canon BP-511A and Charger Canon CG-580) would be what you need, but I am not certain.

Great charger

This charger is a great charger. It takes a little getting used to. The indicator light works a little differently than other chargers. It doesn't change from red to green, it blinks in different patterns to show the level of charge. When it stops blinking, the battery is fully charged. It is specific to certain Canon batteries.

Still trustworthy after 3 years

I've never had a problem with this charger. It's compact, durable, and doesn't block the other outlet plugin. The battery inserts nicely into the charger and stays in place. The charger also has a small, nifty light that blinks to indicate 0%, 50%, 75%, or 100% charged battery. So simple, but so good!

Spare Charger

Just wanted a spare charger to keep at home and at the office. Also, it is very portable for travel.

Simple, gets the job done

Simple to use. No wires to coil. AC plug folds out. Easy to read LED to show charging status. Travels/packs well. I keep several batteries charged before an event, so if you have only one battery and need a fast full charge, this isn't a go-to device. Other than that, it's perfect.
