After picking up a nice but older camera (Olympus E-PL6), I wanted access to extra batteries to be safe on long days away from power outlets. These Wasabi Power batteries are a perfect fit, can be charged 2 at a time in this charger...and each one is almost twice the capacity of the original battery (2000mAh vs 1150mAh). I also like that each battery comes with a reusable protective cap to cover the contacts, making them safer to toss in a pocket or bag.For the price, this is an outstanding upgrade to the usability of the camera. An absolute no-brainer.

I picked up the Wasabi Power Battery 2-Pack with the dual charger for my Olympus camera, and it’s been a lifesaver. The extra batteries give me the peace of mind that I won’t run out of power while I’m out shooting all day. The dual charger is super handy too—no need to wait around for just one battery to charge. I can charge both at the same time, so I’m ready to go faster. The batteries hold a good charge, and I’ve had no issues with them. If you’re looking for reliable, affordable extra batteries for your Olympus, this pack’s a solid choice.

The batteries work great with the new OM System OM-5. The battery longevity seems to be on par with the factory-included battery. The charging time is not the fastest but it's certainly faster than charging the battery through the camera. There are a few drawbacks with this set that leads me to deduct one star from the overall rating.The first drawback, the connection point feels a bit iffy right out of the box. When I tried to charge the two batteries with the charging dock, one of them would light up while I have to reseat the other one in order for the charging light to come on. It might be a one-time thing so I will have to keep an eye out and see if this would become a constant issue.Second, the way the charging dock requires the batteries to be placed upright means that the set would take up more room in my camera bag. The previous charging dock for my Sony camera places the batteries horizontally, making it space-saving when I need to pack the set in my bag.I'll come back and update this review if I come across something else. For now, these batteries and charging dock set is working well for what I need.

worked great

I’ve ordered from Wasabi power in the past and have always been really happy with the quality and performance of their products.Naturally I decided to buy some of these for my new OMD Em5iii. Just through sheer bad luck, one of the batteries happened to be a dud and wouldn’t charge. First time I’ve ever had to call in to their customer support and happy to report they really take care of their customers. Definitely one of the best customer services I’ve ever gone through.Forgot to ask the name of the guy I talked to but he was crazy helpful. Asked a few questions to verify the purchase, understood my problem with the dud battery, and immediately offered a remedy to the situation. In this case offering not one but two batteries to make up for this! (Ofc don’t be going in expecting this and taking advantage of them)Will definitely be using these batteries a ton of my upcoming outings so the extra battery will come in super handy.Can’t recommend these guys enough. Thanks :)I will mention the battery charger in this kit is a bit tight on the battery though. Guess it means it’s pretty secure once in there but definitely takes more effort to put in than I thought. Other than that the battery fits perfectly in the camera.

These Little things are great. Compared to the OEM charger that comes with the camera. And it requires 120 volts. And it takes like two or three hours to charge. This item takes 5 volts off a USB and I don't know what it trickery it uses but the battery charge up very fast. And you can charge two of them instead of one. It's great I have two of them. They take up pretty much no space whatsoever, they are extremely light, and you can connect them to pretty much any available USB source. I have four batteries now. And they're super easy to use. Are they a good value for the purchase? Well I can't say that I can compare them to competing products, but compared to that thing that shipped OEM. Yes these are a great bargain.

The media could not be loaded. Bought this battery pack to have additional batteries to swap out of my Olympus camera. They work perfectly and fit perfectly. The battery also lasts for quite soemtime as I did eave the camera on oneday forgetting to turn it off. The camera did continue to keeps sit battery power long enough for me to shoot a 30 min video after. I have no complaints as of yet. The picture shows a battery form my camera (left) and one of the batteries that came with the pack along with a usb chargin station. Perfect to plug into my laptop, on the go, or my wall or charging station.

As best I can tell, the battery charger works well. The batteries on the other hand are complete junk. One died within months. The other sometimes seems to be OK, but often than not is bad in the camera and doesn't interact at all with the charger (the LED won't turn "ON" when the battery is inserted).The batteries from the camera manufacturer (Olympus) on the other hand still work great 4 years later.
