Eric_Collins Posted May 31, 2008 Share Posted May 31, 2008 I just got my batteries today from Hong Kong. 1x BP-511A 7.4v 1300mah 2x BP-511A 7.4v 1600mah The seller sent me 3 batteries but the 1600mah don't seem to be charging in my Genuine Canon CB-5L charger , the 1300mah works and charges fine. Is the batteries to uprated for the charger to use or something ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrinderBloke Posted May 31, 2008 Share Posted May 31, 2008 The batteries should charge fine on your Canon charger, sounds like you have a duff battery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jezzyjj Posted May 31, 2008 Share Posted May 31, 2008 Wandering OT slightly, why the term '3rd party' and not '2nd party'? Assuming Canon are the '1st party in this instance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thunzi Posted June 1, 2008 Share Posted June 1, 2008 Wandering OT slightly, why the term '3rd party' and not '2nd party'? Assuming Canon are the '1st party in this instance. 2nd Party = A company, in this instance, not owned by Canon, but only makes products specifically for Canon items. 3rd Party = A company who makes many products for various other items. (I think). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ImpInaBox Posted June 1, 2008 Share Posted June 1, 2008 Wandering OT slightly, why the term '3rd party' and not '2nd party'? Assuming Canon are the '1st party in this instance. 2nd party is you. 3rd party is anybody else - just like insurance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric_Collins Posted June 1, 2008 Author Share Posted June 1, 2008 anyways still don't work. The Genuine Canon charger has been reported to charge 1800mah China made 3rd party. So it looks like i've been sent duff stuff. The batteries were only £1.25 each so not lost anything, just annoyed as they take 10 days to arrive.
