BM Premium2 BP-828 Batteries and Dual Battery Charger for Canon VIXIA HF G40, HF G50, HF G60, HF G70, XA40, XA45, XA50, XA55, XA60, XA65, XA70, XA75, XA10, XA11, XA15, XA20, XA25, XF400, XF405

First and foremost - these batteries worked perfectly with the cameras.These batteries were purchased for use at a dance recital held in an auditorium. We use multiple cameras in several locations. In prior years we ran power cords that needed to be taped down for safety purposes. These batteries and charger allowed the recording without the need for power cords. Much safer and saved a lot of time.

I have $169 Canon BP-828s for my two Canon XA15 cameras. I was looking for cheaper backups and an off-camera charger and that brought me to this BM Premium package that contained both. I was a bit hesitant about the price of $69.99. But I tried it. Amazing. TWO BM BP-828 batteries AND a charger. I just finished a test of a fully charged BM 828 battery that ran the camera on recording until the battery died. That was 3 hours and 32 minutes of .mp4 video. I can't say what the dependability of this cheaper battery will be over time, but here at the jump, this package seems an incredible value.

I have not used the batteries yet, only charged them. This review may be premature. The charge through a fairly slow USB cord that is supplied but no charger. I didn't check their state of charge before plugging them in but they sat on the charger for at least three hours. I was expecting to plug the charge into a 120v outlet and maybe an hour or so charge time. They showed two hours and 39 minutes play time when I connected the battery to my Canon Vivian HF G21 which I am happy with. I cannot verify that is the recording time the battery gives me. If they fall significantly short I will try to update my post. All in all I am satisfied. Very good price!!

I bought these BM LiON batteries and charger for my Canon XA-50 Professional Camcorder. My camera only came with the OEM battery, but although it is certainly a great battery, I needed at least two more to cover a long video event-- which requires at least 4-5 hours of battery life. Well, so far these have been great. They easily outlast the original Canon BP-820 battery by at least twice the battery life. And coming with a DUAL CHARGER just makes it so convenient to prepare for an event. I hope they show long term durability-- but so far, they are doing great!! :-)

Bought this for my canon camcorder and after 2 years it’s been working fine and The battery is almost just as good as the official one

Very good product.

This product worked great for 6 months and then suddenly short circuited and stopped working. Didn't think I'd need a warranty. Batteries are fine. I'm not sure if I stored it improperly

No problem at all with the camera accepting the batteries. They work perfectly and run longer than my OEM batteries.
