Perfect
Delivered quickly in perfect condition with tracking. Works perfectly in the PEN E-PL2.I had a PEN-E-PL1 with two batteries and was told by the camera shop when I bought the E-PL2 that the E-PL1 batteries would work in the E-PL2 but they won't. The E-PL2 battery has four contacts and the E-PL1 battery has three. However the E-PL2 batteries work in the E-PL1 camera and the E-PL1 batteries charge in the E-PL2 charger. Just for your information and not related to the quality of the Wasabi Power battery for the PEN E-PL2.The Wasabi Power battery for the PEN E-PL2 looks like it is very well constructed, identical to the original battery and comes with a cover for the contacts unlike the original battery. Charges fine in the charger and works fine in the camera. I highly recommend it.

A great start - let's see how it holds up
I've given it a five-star rating for now, because it seems to charge fully and maintain its charge well. Of course, this is no indicator of how it will hold up over the long term, with many charge/discharge cycles, but it was inexpensive enough to risk, and I'm looking forward to seeing how it holds up.This brand of battery is also one of few that has the extra contact, which as far as I know is for overcharge protection circuitry. Of course, this will also help the life of the battery.

When you need a battery, you need one. The price was a good deal.

Works fine
This battery works fine in a PEN E-PL2 camera and does charge with the stock Olympus charger. While it is advertised to have a much larger capacity than the standard Olympus battery it replaces, my experience using this battery was that there wasn't much of a difference. Perhaps the biggest difference between this battery and the standard Olympus battery is the price, and it is here that this battery shines. It is certainly worth the price.

Charged and worked fine on receipt
Works fine in my camera. Charged as I would expect and fit properly. I may update this as I get more usage experience. At this time I expect to order others from this brand.

Good second battery
The camera uses a lot of battery power, so I got two extra and cycle them as they are used. These perform as well as or better than the one that came with the camera.

Battery died after 1.5 years, grew in size due to 'swelling' while inside my cam
Bought this due to the compelling price and many positive reviews. Used the camera since For 1.5 years until it was defective. The performance until its sudden death wasn't bad and i was a happy customer but the way it died made me very concerned. As others have posted that the battery may swell, this is what happened to me. The battery blew up inside my camera while it was turned off and was stored at home at 68F. It took me several minutes of hard shaking of my camera body to get the battery out, which had grown in size due to 'swelling'. I'd be concerned to use this again, will it leak into my camera next time?

Seems to be as powerful as claimed and seemed to ...
Seems to be as powerful as claimed and seemed to hold a significant charge right out of the box. This battery came with a cap which slips over the battery contacts, thus ensuring that they can't be short circuited while stored in a pouch or pocket. I was sufficiently impressed impressed to order a Wasabi battery for my wife's Panasonic TZ40.
