battery

[pilgrim]

well I went to get a new battery for my d-rebel at London Drugs, and saw they cost $130.00 !!!! So did some searching on the net and came across these..

Anyone have any info.. how long they last? will they work with the d-rebel? will they re-charge in my charger?
Thanks,
Troy

Hi Pilgrim!
I bought two BP-511's from these guys:

for my 10D which. I believe, uses the same batteries as your camera, and they've been working just great for a couple of months and charge off the Canon charger with no problem.
HTH.
Sid.

Even if you bought the battery and it didn't work, I say 20 bucks is worth taking the risk and not having to buy a $130 battery.

Thank's for the link Sid! I think I'll order a couple off those guy's.
