Very curious how it holds up long term which is the real test. While SmallRig is a known brand I have a hunch their battery cells aren't any better than most 3rd party. Past 10yrs I've bought 20-30 Fuji 3rd party batteries from different brands and almost all of them die after about a year of medium/heavy use. The OEM Fuji ones still working great after 8yrs. In the long the savings buying cheap 3rd party is offset by how often it is replaced. The only 3rd party brand I've seen using quality cells lasting as many cycles as OEM is Nitecore. However, they are more expensive than typical 3rd parties.

And how do you feel about them now? Was looking into getting something similar. I'm in Montreal and the closest thing to what you reviewed is a ProMaster USB 2 slot charger with one battery.

Thank for the video as I was in two minds.... I will be placing my order today!

Small Rig is a reputable company. I have bought their products before and I have always been pleased. That is a great deal, Greg. Two for one.

Thanks Greg, I usually hesitate on 3rd party batteries but this video has changed my mind about giving them a try. Especially with a recognizable brand like SmallRig.

@@gregtoope Im considering one, just come acroos your channel and you make some good stuff. Do they still hold up 8 months later?

Many reviewers have addressed the matter of Canon vs. one of the brands. You checked Small Rig. I have been using Wasabi Power for 11 months now. I see Neewer has a similar set of three. Wasabi LP-E6NH will charge in the Canon Charger (unlike the situation with not 'fully chipped' LP-E17 batteries used in smaller Canon cameras). What we have here is an opportunity for someone who makes KZread videos for a living to compare several brands (most of us have heard of the ones mentioned) and see if there is really any difference worth noting. The battery life in my R7 is sufficient that I do not need more than the three (1 Canon, 2 Wasabi) I have. A question is whether the cameras will last as long as the batteries. My ten+ year old LP-E6 used with my 5DmkII are still good and also work (albeit slowly) in the R7. The question is how these thing do in ten years and when which option swells up and gets stuck in a camera. I have had batteries fail from my 20D, 300D and 30D but that included both 3rd party and original Canon. How often do you toss out fully operational batteries just because they are a few months old? Working pro's can always bill them to the customer. Hobbyists like me who only shoot ~20,000 shots a year have to decide and pay. I have to wonder what factory makes and labels all these options. My genuine (with camera) LP-E6NH is clearly marked 'Made in China'.

Hi, is the batre still good today ? Is it safe for daily use ?

Great review, I bought a second battery when I purchased my Canon M50.

make sure to let us know.

my question is how to interpret the charger info . the top icon bulb with ma starts with memy battery at 55% arou 1000ma second icon is voltage. third looks a like battery terminal starts at 0 and slowly climbs. the photo show it is at 2040 mah the battery capacity. can you confirm that when charging empty battery it will show this when finished. confused as when the battery are finished my chargers show zero cheers

Are they still performing?? Can you do H+ with this batteries?

Hey long time no see! I don't think KZread is pushing your Videos out there! I used to see them all the time but it's been a while now.

Hi Greg, Thanks for the informative video. I lost my manual, can you tell me are the rings supposed to stop flashing when the batteries are fully charged?

Ulanzi now makes a replacement for the LP-E6NH battery that is USB-C rechargeable. Please review.

I used wasabi brand batteries for a couple years in one of my Nikon cameras and authentic Nikon batteries in my other Nikon camera. When the weather temps get below freezing my Nikon camera with the wasabi brand batteries stops working after being out of my camera bag and in the below freezing temps for about 15 minutes while my Nikon camera using Nikon batteries keeps on taking photos with no problems.

Does this dual charger charge the original LPE6NH canon batteries?

@gregtoope

Жыл бұрын

It’s been charging my original batteries that came with my R6 and R7

Normal that small rig last less because the capacity is a little less, around 96% of original Canon. Thanks for your video, I will get the fuji version.

Hope they work out in the long run.

Hi, how's the battery performance compared to original? Hoping can get at least 85% from the original NH battery

That kit of 2 batteries + charger for fuji cost only the 35% of only one original fuji battery.

Absolute bargain, i often tried non origenal batteries and thought if i get 75% of the capacity from the real one for half the price its a win. This would deffinetly be a win. (charger super bonus)

why all youtubers don't do a timelapes drain test comparison or just shows straight the results like, I have test the Battery X on camera X and here is the duration. a video of 2 minutes instead of movie duration of blablabla

Nothing is clear until a few hundred cycles have been done.
