User Ratings and Reviews

5 Stars It’s a battery charger…
It does what it’s supposed to do, it charges Canon BP series batteries. I have tried this with 3 different batteries (BP-807, BP-808, BP-819) and all charge fine. A must have item, if you plan on properly maintaining your batteries. Beware of imitations that don’t contain the appropriate charging circuitry.

5 Stars A must have!!!
The battery that comes with the Canon HG20 is okay. This battery does give me a lot more hours to play with. The only thing that I don’t like is that it is a bit expensive. If you are going on a vacation or something like that then I do recommend getting this battery since it holds more power for longer recording time.

5 Stars Canon battery charger quick and efficient
The charger was compact, easy to transport, and quickly recharged the larger battery pack purchased to go with the Canon Vixia HG20.

5 Stars Works Great
This charger plugs right into the wall with the battery pack attached – so there are no wires or long cords to deal with. Great product & easy to use.

5 Stars Slick
Works as advertised. I use it when I am taping my son’s Ultimate Frisbee games. I can plug it into my car inverter and charge a battery while I am using another. It is compact and the plug folds away…no cords to mess with. The battery snaps into place in the charger…plug it in and wait for the light to change color on the charger…done. Very happy with it.

5 Stars awesome battery
i’ve been bumping up my canon HF10 and its strange but this battery is one of my favorite things in my camera bag because this thing last forever. i was using my camera from 8am till 6pm, on and off. but it lasted all day.

5 Stars Everything as it is supposed to be
Fine battery, works well and everything is as it is supposed to be. Love it.

5 Stars Great Battery Life
This battery is a must have if you have a video camcorder. It has about 4-hrs of usage time and so I don’t have to worry about a dead battery. Plus you can review videos and keep the camcorder on pause rather than having to turn off the power all the time.

The original equipment battery is now a spare/backup.

5 Stars Battery Pack for Canon of great benefit
During extensive filming, this battery pack provided reliable use of the Vixia HG20 for many hours. While the battery pack extends beyond the end of the camera when attached, it does not cause a problem in handling the camera nor does it look objectionable. The battery that comes with the HG20 is very short lived and the camera would be of limited value without this option.

5 Stars Must have item!!!!
This battery is great and a must have if you plan to record long sporting events.

1 Star BEWARE! The item is listed as available but is actually on back order
BEWARE! The item is listed as available but is actually on back order.

this is not stated anywhere on the page. i called once and was told no problem, will ship in indicated time, now the price went up and when i called i was told it is on back order. considering that i need this for a trip, this is not good for me. I wish Amazon would put this up front so the customers would not be mislead.

The rating is not for the battery but for Amazon’s lack of consideration for its customers to disclose pertinent information.

5 Stars worked great
I purchased this battery pack for my Barbados trip and I have to say it worked very well. I just charged it up at night so it would be ready to go the next day. It lasted long enough for me to film everything I needed film; I used it as an extra backup battery.

5 Stars Canon BP-819 for Canon HF-S100
This is a great battery. It is only a fraction bigger (1/8″ to 3/16″ estimate) than the original that came with the camcorder. Based on other reviews I was really concerned about the size and weight of this battery. My old camcorder had an extended life battery 2.5 x the size of the standard battery, so after going forth and back for two days I decided the worst that can happen is to return it and loose the shipping costs. I use 16GB cards and could not run the battery down with one of these cards (80 min). This is the battery that should have been included with the product, but I assume that is how they make their money. They know everybody will by the extended battery. I found the best price at Amazon and would highly recommend buying this item. Two of these would be great, but for now I’ll use this one as my main battery and the one that came in the box as a backup.

5 Stars Massive added power!
The battery that came with my Canon HF-10 was a great battery but I knew right away I needed some additional power if I was going to be serious about filming. This high capacity battery is incredible and is a MUST for anyone taking video. I also liked the size as it gave me a place to rest my thumb when holding by hand.

If you are serious about filming then this is the battery you need to get you through the day. Don’t forget you will also have your battery that came with the camera so know you are equipped for just about anything. Great job Canon, love your products!!!

4 Stars Good Performance
I bought this product for a Canon Vixia HF10. It works good, but it does stick out from the back a little bit. It also comes with a cover for the contacts that you can put on the battery that came with the camera while using this one. I would have given it 5 stars if it didn’t stick out as far, but it does work good and also works with the battery life display feature built into the camera (some generic batteries won’t).
