Have bought the battery as a spare for my Canon IXUS without putting big expectation on the battery. Thought so at the cost of this can be nothing special. But the many good reviews made me curious. Now after a few months and a number of charge cycles, I must say that the No Name battery for nothing, but to have nothing is worse than the original. Conclusion: Maximum power to Minimum dough. Well folks: Buy, buy, buy !!!!! Yes Oh I almost forgot: The shipment of Amazon as always smooth and swift as an arrow! Best wishes: AH
