From: jj on 22 Jun 2010 02:34 I need new BP511A's for my 5D. Prices are all over the board on the aftermarket stuff, and so are the claimed milliamp hours. Anyone here know of a dependable source of reliable batteries? Thanks. JJ

I've only bought two after market batteries, one from www.sterlingtek.com and another from www.bestbatt.com. Both batteries cost about 1/3 the price of an OEM battery, and worked as well or better than the original. -- Mike Russell - http://www.curvemeister.com

Anyone here > know of a dependable source of reliable batteries? I've always gotten my BP511 batteries from Sterlingtek and have had good experiences with them. Not as cheap as some of the eBay sources, but not expensive either. $11.99 each. "http://sterlingtek.com/" I think that the 2000 mAH claim may be a little optimistic, but it's certainly as good as the OEM Canon batteries.

I've purchased a handful (three) from MyDigitalDiscount.com and have no complaints. I don't know the claimed or actual performance, though. -- - Cassandra J. Nichols

I don't know the claimed or actual performance, though. Thanks everyone. I checked out all the recommended sites. Things seemed pretty comparable, so I ordered from Sterlingtek on the basis of the price for a two-pack -- $23.98. Also, this info from SterlingTek: "There is no difference between the ST55 SterlingTek brand and the the ST52 (two-pack) from Powwer. I would recommend the ST52 combo because you get 2 batteries for $23.98 instead of one for $18.48. Bulk prices start with 26 pieces and the price per battery decreases with the more batteries that you buy." JJ |
