Currently I'm using Big ED & two Canon Bp511 batteries, I'm looking to purchase the Lenmar 511's & would like to know if they can be used with the Canon charger CB5L? If anyone is using this brand please let me know your thoughts & experience.
Thanks

I have "third party" BP511-ish batteries from four manufacturers.. and all of them charge just fine in the canon charger. :)

But other than the $9.00 ebay specials I've yet to hear a bad thing about any of them.

I have used www.terascout.com (external link) BP511 model batteries with no issues whatsoever. Saved some money and they actually are performing better then my canon batteries (probobly because they are new)
