Summary: Good, but expensive
Comment: I bought this battery as a spare to use with a Canon SD870. As far as I can tell, it is the same as the battery that came with the camera. A battery like this has advantages and disadvantages. It is small and flat, so a camera using this battery can be compact and slim. On the other hand you can't just run into any convenience store and buy a replacement like you could for AA batteries. Since a replacement might be hard to find on short notice, I think a spare is a necessity. Both the original and the one I bought from Amazon work great. They last a long time before they need to be recharged. The only problem I have with the battery is that it was very expensive. I haven't tried any cheaper batteries from other companies to see how their performance compares, but if I were to buy another battery for the SD870 I'd try a cheaper copy.

Summary: nice to have
Comment: I always buy an extra battery when I get electronics as it has saved many a situation. This battery holds its charge and if you are getting a Canon camera it would seem like a good addition.

Comment: great for when you need an extra battery. It is a great deal on amazon because the cost would be more at a retail store.

Comment: Great Battery. Last a long time to be depleted. I was going to get another one as second spare when traveling. I don't need it anymore. One is enough. Highly recommended.

Summary: Canon battery pack
Comment: The packs works well and charges relatively quickly. I always carry a spare battery pack in case of problems or emergencies or I use the camera alot. O have had no problems afer one years of use with the battery pack. i have had a number of different kinds of battery packs and I would suggest that the packs be replaced when you have difficulty in holding a charge or a long period to recharge since it may be approaching the end of its useful lifetime and fail when you are taking picture.
