These Little things are great. Compared to the OEM charger that comes with the camera. And it requires 120 volts. And it takes like two or three hours to charge. This item takes 5 volts off a USB and I don't know what it trickery it uses but the battery charge up very fast. And you can charge two of them instead of one. It's great I have two of them. They take up pretty much no space whatsoever, they are extremely light, and you can connect them to pretty much any available USB source. I have four batteries now. And they're super easy to use. Are they a good value for the purchase? Well I can't say that I can compare them to competing products, but compared to that thing that shipped OEM. Yes these are a great bargain.

Necessary addition for the OM5: it comes with no charger, only an ancient mini USB port on the camera for charging the included battery. The two batteries so far seem supply at least 80% of the OEM battery. The OEM battery, being physically small and the camera actually a computer dedicated to taking pictures, doesn't last all that long either so this kind of thing is a must-have.

I've been using these batteries in my M5-III since 2021 with good results. About a year ago, one of the pair of batteries started to not hold a charge for the same amount of time and gradually diminished. Now, one battery will not hold a charge, while the other is working fine. Bad on me for remembering that Wasabi has a 3-year warranty after the three years! Also, the charger if very convenient to carry and use.

worked great

I travel with my camera. I keep several batteries charged in advance so it’s fast and easy to replace a battery. We won’t miss a shot.

It comes with a USB type A to type C cable, not micro usb. They might have upgraded the interface. This is a plus because everything should turn to type c.Also the battery works with my OM-5

As best I can tell, the battery charger works well. The batteries on the other hand are complete junk. One died within months. The other sometimes seems to be OK, but often than not is bad in the camera and doesn't interact at all with the charger (the LED won't turn "ON" when the battery is inserted).The batteries from the camera manufacturer (Olympus) on the other hand still work great 4 years later.

I’ve ordered from Wasabi power in the past and have always been really happy with the quality and performance of their products.Naturally I decided to buy some of these for my new OMD Em5iii. Just through sheer bad luck, one of the batteries happened to be a dud and wouldn’t charge. First time I’ve ever had to call in to their customer support and happy to report they really take care of their customers. Definitely one of the best customer services I’ve ever gone through.Forgot to ask the name of the guy I talked to but he was crazy helpful. Asked a few questions to verify the purchase, understood my problem with the dud battery, and immediately offered a remedy to the situation. In this case offering not one but two batteries to make up for this! (Ofc don’t be going in expecting this and taking advantage of them)Will definitely be using these batteries a ton of my upcoming outings so the extra battery will come in super handy.Can’t recommend these guys enough. Thanks :)I will mention the battery charger in this kit is a bit tight on the battery though. Guess it means it’s pretty secure once in there but definitely takes more effort to put in than I thought. Other than that the battery fits perfectly in the camera.
