Affordable yet durable charger that I use for my Canon camera. Works excellent; no problems / complaints. Does what it's suppose to do. Very happy with the price and how fast it was shipped. Good for the Price 5 out of 5
Lost my original charger and this works just as well and is dirt cheap. Buy it!!! It's cheap (cash wise), and works great. 5 out of 5
No quality issues what-so-ever. Charges in the house AND in the car unlike the Canon charger that the camera ships with. I lost the original charger in Vegas, go figure, and ordered this. Works with my Canon PowerShot SD780 IS battery (aftermarket battery because I lost the battery in Vegas as well). That is the only camera battery I've tried it with so I can't advise on anything else. Hope this helps. It is solid as far as I'm concerned. Had it for 4 months. Feasible alternative, providing you're matching it with the right camera. 4 out of 5
The batteries for the Canon SD-770 and SD-780 look exactly the same and have identical dimensions. And the specs of the two batteries are almost replicates--almost. There's a seemingly insignificant discrepancy in the numbering that makes all of the difference in the world when it comes to charging the batteries of the respective cameras. I missed being able to take once-in-a-lifetime shots of my granddaughter at the July 4 parade because the battery on my 780 went dead and I simply couldn't locate the charger amid the plethora of accumulated chargers, adapters, transformers, etc. I borrowed my wife's charger for her SD-770--and was surprised to discover that it wouldn't charge my SD-780.
Bottom line: This charger is indeed a relatively inexpensive alternative to the pricey OEM charger from Canon for the Elf model listed as the SD-780. Be sure to label it quickly, because it's quite possible it won't charge any other Canon camera batteries. I'm withholding a star simply because I've used it only once, and some generics have been known to bite the bullet in a hurry. It has a red light, which turns to green when the battery is ready to go. There are generics on Amazon at a fraction of the price of this one. Personally, I wouldn't risk it.
