3rd party camera batteries...

Could do with an extra battery or two for the trip to Le Mans but don't really fancy dropping ~£40 on a Canon OEM jobby.

At £9.99 for two these http://www.7dayshop.com/catalog/product_info.php?c... look pretty good value - anyone with any experience?

Another alternative would be the Hahnel or Energizer ones off warehouse express but they're £25 so not much of a saving.

Afternoon Mr Heat

My housemate has bought a number of these from there and has had no problems at all. He works for the student union here and uses the 7DS batteries for their cameras as well as his own.

Job's a good'un

Ditto - I have 1 "genuine" and 2 cheap copies for my 350D and the copies are as good as the genuine one so far. They might not last as long in terms of cycles but at the price, who cares?

I bought 6 "copies" from 7dayshop for my 20D 2 years ago. They're all still going strong.

My "Jessops" Nikon copy outperforms the Nikon ...

Both excellent though ...
