Hi All, are 7DayShop batteries good as the real Canon ones? They are much cheaper and seem too good to be true.

Are they as good? No, they are better. slightly larger capacity, plus they are cheap!
I've got 4. None of them have ever exploded in the camera, despite what shops try to tell you.

Cheers, sounds good, think I will order a double pack. I trust 7DayShop as they seem well established so guess I would have a claim if it did exploded.

I've bought 3 'unbranded' ones from ebay over the last three years and never had a problem. I expect the 7dayshop ones are of a simlar quality so I'd not hesitate to buy one.
