Has anyone had a problem with these working (at all) in the OM-D E-M5? For reference, I've charged these in the Wasabi (seemingly successfully), but both times I've taken these on trips (without a charger), they've been DOA (camera won't even come on)...

Jeff, I have used them without problem for months now. It may just be that you got a bum set. I have been running only Oly BLN-1s in my OM-Ds and E-M1 for the last two months, so decided to see how my Wasabi batteries were doing in my bag having not been on a charger in more than two months just for this response. I can say that BOTH my Wasabis were still fully charged (based on my E-M1's battery display) and are working fine. I'd suggest contacting them to see if they can help you out. Jamie.

I am able to charge the batteries with my Nikon MH-25 charger but the issue I have is they don't work in my battery grip. They do work inside the camera. Strange.

I agree with Cody D. Mine work perfectly fine. I love them. No issues whatsoever!

They work fine in my Sony, as long as your camera is using the G battery. This is my second Sony and my 2nd aftermarket battery purchase. No problems.

Hi Shane,I got a 2-pack of Wasabi batteries (no charger) for my 7D (same batteries as 5D II), that were advertised to work with the Canon charger. One of the batteries died within a couple of months and the other one still works, but doesn't hold a charge as long as my original Canon battery. Personally, I wasn't particularly satisfied with Wasabi. Good luck.

It works perfectly with the OMD-EM5. There is no reason why it won't work with the EM1.

I used MH-25 chrger which came with D7000. I was not availble to chage this wasabi en-el15 replacement.I'm not sure how other people are satisfied. Maybe they are using other charger. From day one, I could not use this battery. I rather get original nikon en-el15.

3rd party batteries work fine. I buy Wasabi brand for all my cameras. Great deal, and I've never had an issue.

I wish I could help you... the camera was working fine as I had tested it before my trip. The day before my trip I went to use the camera and could not get it to charge or work at all.

I am still waiting for this charger to arrive. But one issue... Just had my EOS 6D with one original Canon battery. I am using a battery grip (wich came with 2 Canon LP-6E replacement batteries. The original LP-6E battery in the original Canon charger did not complete its 1st charge and overnight. It was stuck on like 90%.. I placed it into the battery grip took some shots with the camera. Then placed it back into the original Canon charger. This time the charge completed and all is fine. So there may be some start up quirks with these batteries... I never experienced it before, with any kind of Canon batteries. FYI. I am still waiting for this charger to arrive. But one issue... Just had my EOS 6D with one original Canon battery.

Purchased 2 of these batteries for my Nikon 1V1 (It said they would be compatible with my camera). However, my camera rejected them (I am paraphrasing here but it indicated I should install the proper batteries for my camera.) I purchased a couple of Wasabi Power batteries for Nikon En-El15 and the first thing I did was test them in my camera. The camera accepted each one without a problem. They just arrived a couple of days ago and I have a fully charged battery in my camera already so I don't know the battery life of these batteries yet.

Yes, I own the OMD EM-5 and bought it for use with the camera. Works like a charm. Wish it was a little smaller, but otherwise no complaints.

When I purchased the camera, my sister convinced me to by these extra batteries by Wasabi Power. I was skeptical because of the price but also because of the price it was worth taking the chance. You get two batteries, a wall charger that doubles as a car charger using a cord that comes with it. These batteries work great! I definitely would recommend them to anyone.search for: Wasabi Power Battery (2-Pack) and Charger for Sony NP-BX1, NP-BX1/M8 and Sony Cyber-shot DSC-HX50VWasabi Power Battery (2-Pack) and Charger for Sony NP-BX1, NP-BX1/M8 When I purchased the camera, my sister convinced me to by these extra batteries by Wasabi Power.

Wasabi order purchased was in Oct '13. Don't know about long term yet. (Son used the batteries to take 1500+ pictures in New Zealand last month. Changed/charged them frequently.)

This is really depressing. I saw someone in Malaysia sharing a picture of his *silver* OM-D!! If I had known it would take *forever* for Amazon to fulfill our pre-orders, I would not have sold off my E-P3 that quickly. I ended up buying an E-PM1 this week to tide me over while I wait for the OM-D. The Amazon Store card 12 months interest free financing is too good to give up my place in the pre-order queue. I'll wait. :-(

Hi Gregory! I just asked the question of the best "proven" way to charge these batts and I'm convinced by the majority of answers is to use the USB end and keep the mAh's the same 1 thru 5, of course. It will take longer, but successful all around, as many have said and I tend to agree. Some have used, me included, a 3.7V wall charger, but I don't feel any longer. I hope that this helps and puts your mind at ease as it does mine!�
