This Battery and Battery Charger kit provides a power solution to replace the original Canon LP-E6 camera battery.
The PREMIUM rechargeable battery pack is specifically designed as a replacement for the Canon LP-E6 battery. It features the latest battery technology, and uses the highest quality components that meet or exceed the original manufacturers specifications.
The charger features a UK 3 pin plug to charge from 100-240v 50/60Hz mains, allowing you to charge (with the appropriate plug adapter) anywhere in the world. You can charge original Canon LP-E6 batteries as well as the bundled battery.
IMPORTANT OPERATIONAL INFORMATION
The original Canon LP-E6 battery include a chip which communicates various pieces of data back to the camera whilst this is very useful it also gives Canon a way of slowing / stopping non Canon branded battery sales.
The chip with it's encrypted software on-board cannot be copied outright due to patents Canon own, so the 3rd party battery manufacturers have to design a way of getting around the protection. The solution we are selling does not send the battery life to the camera (as this is the part the encryption covers). The replacement battery can only be charged on the supplied charger; charging it on any other charger will damage it beyond repair. The supplied charger can charge the included battery or Canon original LP-E6 batteries.
