Has anyone succesfully charged Canon 5Dmkiii batteries. My LP-E6 is not charging. The other batteries that are not Canon original do charge.

I HAVE THE SAME ISSUE AND HAVE A SOLUTION!! Put the nose of the batter in at a DOWNWARDS ANGLE. catching just the front hooks to secure in place. Charger then recognizes it. the problem is the connectors are two short for the battery. if you put the battery in at a angle, works perfectly fine.

NO.I've had bad luck charging Canon batteries with this charger. The "battery plates" on this charger have pins that are 2.75mm high, the Canon chargers have pins that are 3.5mm high. The newer Canon LP-E6 batteries are not even recognized by this charger because the pins do not touch the connectors on the Canon batteries.

I have 4 original Canon LP-E6 batteries and they charge just fine on this charger.

It charges every off brand batteries I put in it.....It won't work at all with the Canon batteries.....I don't know why, they all look the same to me, so I'll use the Canon charger on the only 2 that I have. All others, I'll use the Dual Charger and buy the off brand batteries when I need replacements....Hope that helps you out.

Rick, I had one my LP-E6 not play too nicely at first, and it would not even really provide a state of a percentage of load. However after awhile, I got my charger a few months ago, every battery charges and plays nice; both Original Canon and non Canon Batteries. Try reseating the platform where the batteries connect to, and see if that changes it any.

I have had luck charging them on mine.... Are you sure the contacts are clean? Check that and the contacts themselves to see if they mate correctly.

I have the same issues as you. Seems like a waste if you like owning Original Canon Batteries

It depends on the battery manufacturer. Some of the non-Canon brand LPE6 batteries, such as those made by Wasabi and Maxtek, work fine. I've generally avoided unbranded batteries (if they won't proudly put their company's name on the battery, what else did they lowball?), but some of the unbranded LPE6's work just fine alongside Canon's, with full readouts (left and right batteries), etc. I generally pair two batteries from the same manufacturer in the multi-power grips for my EOSes. Really necessary for cold weather work, too.

I was unable to locate a Leica branded charger. When the camera arrived, everything I found said that you had to charge the battery through the camera (insert battery in camera, plug camera into outlet with included cable - a non-standard cable, by the way). I was very frustrated, as I like to have a second battery charged and ready to replace a depleted battery. Then I like to charge the depleted battery while I use the second. In the end, I bought a thrid-party charger unit along with a Leica brand replacement battery. Still new, so I have not run into any problems, but I haven't used it that much either. I do not understand having a removable battery with no way of charging it outside of the camera...

I've never once had an issue with the included batteries. They also charge perfectly in my Canon charger.

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.

I've used all three. I've had one issue with the a STK not charging in a Canon charger. They made it right (replaced) so I'm not too broke up over it. If you're just looking for basic battery function and don't care about having it store it's conditioning and use cycles then go with the aftermarket ones. You could buy 4 for the price of a single Canon. I've never figured out how Canon gets the money they do. I've used them in a 7D, 5DMkII and MkIII.

Power your EOS DSLR Camera with this LP-E6N Lithium-Ion Battery Pack from Canon. It is compatible with the LC-E6 and LC-E6E chargers. The battery is supplied with select cameras and is offered here as a spare or replacement part. Compatible Cameras EOS 7D Mark II EOS 7D EOS 5D Mark III EOS 5D Mark II EOS 60D EOS 60Da EOS 70D EOS 6D Got this information off of B&H website. I would have to say yes.

It's supposed to. The 7D mark II can or at least should be backwards compatible with the LP-E6 batteries and gear. That's per the canon website. The LP-E6 and its "N" counter part only differ by the chip used on the battery and a slight capacity increase.

Mine came with a Canon LP-E6 battery and recharger. According to the literature, it is also compatible with Canon B511 and Nikon N-EL3E (elsewhere noted as Canon BP511 and Nikon EL3)I've only used it once and despite the fact that I ensured the battery was fully charged, it only worked for less than 10 minutes and so I had to switch to the regular power cord and connect to an electrical socket.

If you are asking about the EOS 5D Mark II and Mark III, then the answer is... Yes. They both use the LP-E6 battery pack. LP-E6 battery pack is charged with the LC-E6 charger.

This seems to be a problem with some of these. I cannot get it to work in picture take mode, only in playback mode. From there, however, you can change the battery type, so I know mine didn't work even after changing this. I've tried several sets of batteries, both alk and nimh. After at most a few pictures it says it's dead, but in playback mode it still says it's fully charged. So, I'm guessing there's a quality control issue with these.

My daughter & I both have that camera. When I purchased my camera from Amazon I also got a Canon charger for that type of battery. When my daughter lost her charger I got her another one on Amazon another from a different manufacturer as well as some more rechargeable batteries. With that much zoom your wear down your battery faster so I'm glad I now carry extra charged batteries.

I am another customer as well, but I had the same concerns you did. I received a genuine Canon LC-E6 charger in an original Canon package when I ordered this. I compared it top to bottom with the one that came with my girlfriend's Canon D60 she purchased at Walmart. No difference. It has the Canon logo stamped in it, same stickers, everything. Charges my batteries great. Genuine Canon product.

Did you make sure they are fully charged before loading? Does the original battery work that came with the camera when put in? If not contact Canon directly.

I have a 5D mark II, they work just fine with it. Charges canon and wasabi batteries equally well. Prefer canon change from blinking to solid lights when charged, to wasabi change from red to green lights, but can easily put up with it for the price.

Yes. I got 2 batteries and a charger for my Canon. I had a charger that came with the camera so i can burn through two batteries and charge them at the same time while I use the original battery. They hold a charge a long time!

you can charge this batteries with canon original charger. Also i think with any other canon chargers, for example wasabi charger
