Can't use both batteries simultaneously for camera functions.

Didn't realize it doesn't use both batteries for camera function. Only uses one for camera function and one for wifi. Total waste of money.

It works.

It works. Wifi is better. Not 10x better but the connection is better, speeds are better, more options. That's what I bought it for so yeah, all is good. One battery is for wifi, the other for the camera so yeah, I have to change the main battery every 90 minutes, the wifi battery every 120 minutes.

Does what it?s supposed to except?

Does what is supposed to but the transfer speeds are slow wirelessly. Sometimes it takes 4sec up 11sec at the same settings. Doesn?t utilize both battery for power. Only uses 1 for power and 1 for wireless transmission.

Not worth it. It's not what you think

Long-time Canon user and CPS member. I love me some Canon because although they might not be the first to come out with something, when they do it's solid and well thought out. I can't say that about this item. All other versions of this is a way to get more out of your camera. For example, it allows you to prove double the battery power. So when I saw this version which also included a way to add better wifi and physical ethernet port I was sold regardless of price. But then I found out it doesn't utilize both batteries and separates the two. So now you can be shooting and barely use wifi or not at all and run out of battery with the other battery full. there is no way to switch via software or automatically. If anything at least allow me to use both batteries. That and the wifi is just as bad although better (I don't understand why camera wifi is sooo slow compared What's strange is the handle with its ethernet poet is trying to reach out to studio shooters but why would any studio want to use this thing when you cant provide continuous power? I'm not sure if it works with a dummy battery but it seems to me if you wanted to add a physically port yet not allow a longer-lasting battery solution as you had before at least have a built-in AC adapter where you can plug the bad boy in. then the price would be worth it. make it right canon and provide a firmware update to allow the sharing of both batteries at least.
