Questions & Answers

Denise D : Do these batteries and charger lose their ability over time, say several years ?GARY B : I am no expert on the subject, but that is what I have experienced. After about 3 years, the batteries do not hold a charge for very long. I will go to an event, take a dozen or so photos, and the charge indicator begins to flash. Very frustrating! I don't know how long they are supposed to function, and I wonder if they will sell me new batteries, or tell me I need to buy a whole new setup. I am disappointed in this, and getting ready to call Adorama.SHIRLEY K : I have only had these about a year but so far they have recharged and held up good and I have only had to charge them maybe 4 times in a year and I have used them a lot. Sorry couldn't help you further but hope this helps a little.LAURA N : I haven't noticed any change in how long the batteries hold their charge or in how long the charger takes to charge them. However, I don't use my camera very much (some people have more picture opportunites than others, say lots of travel or babies). I don't know if frequent charging of the batteries would make a difference in long-term performance.DAVID L : Well we've only had them a little over a year so I couldn't say but I can say they last a good long time between charges.
Shopper : what are the specs on the cbk4-300 ?SAVY L : I personally use the wizard double a chargers its only 50$ and it will charge and condition 4batteriesSCOTT B : These look like "NiMh" rechargeable batteries. Look to see on the Batteries for "Mah" rating. Like 2000Mah or 2500Mah. The higher the "Mah" rating the longer the battery lasts. The other "spec" is on the charger itself. Look for the output like 500ma. That means the charger is charging 500 milliamps per hour, so if you have a 2500Mah battery, it will take 5 hours to charge up that battery.Glen H : The batteries included with this unit are "AA" size Ni-MH 2500 mAh.
Shopper : how long does these batteries last?SIGURD S : if you use them like I do in my Canon flash unit, they will last about 3-4 month without recharge. In my SX130IS about 2 - 3 month during Vacation travel. My standby batteries will last a long time. I have them now for 3 month and they still have not lost the charge. I can only say good things about them.JUDITH B : We do not use the camera frequently, so we do not have a good feel for how long. Wish we could be of more help.A A : They last much longer than regular batteries. I mainly use them in my Canon Speedlites because they perform better but my wife keeps stealing them for her little point and shoot Canon bc they last so much longer than the throw away Duracell Procell batteries. If you want my advice, I'd say buy them. They are well worth it. I bought several packs and chargers for my pro gear.

Powerful

I have used several different brands of rechargable batteries in my flash and have had the same complaint about them all, flash doesn't recycle fast enough to keep up and the juice runs out too quick, constantly changing batteries. With these little babies - Problem solved!

FANTASTIC PRODUCT

I use these batteries in my PowerShot SX150 LS. They last a lot longer than I expected. Great investment. I have not found anything negative about the charger or batteries

Canon CBK4-300 Battery & Charger Kit

I use it above all for my digital photography camera: - Long-lasting batteries. - Very reliable. - Durable. - Very well built. - When not in use, doesn't lose its charge fast.

Won't use anything else

Use these in my Canon A650IS digital camera and my Canon Rebel 2000 film camera with the BP-200 battery pack. Made the mistake of buying another brand and threw them away. I will definately buy more of this battery and charger.

Great, but pricey!

The CBK4-300 Battery & Charger Kit does a great job. The batteries charge in a reasonable amount of time, and they hold their charge. The charger's dual-voltage capabilities make it very convenient for foreign travel. [...]

Best battery and charger i got

Bought 2 set of those and was simply amazed at how many pictures i was able to take with one set. I have a CANON S2-IS and was able to fill my 1GIG memory card 3 time before they gave out. if i would have know, i would have bought only one set as they charge really quickly. I simply love those and would recommend to anyone looking for good batteries
