Thanx for the photos! Looks nice and compact.
You\'re welcome...
And FYI... The NC-E3 battery is fully charged as of 12:36pm (PST)... A little over two hours from empty to full... Now a few observations from the recharging unit:
- The recharging unit was warm after completely charging the depleted battery
- The battery itself was was a little bit warm, too, but cool than the charger
- Full charge was a little over 2 hrs (compared to what it said on the box (90min)
- The \"green\" LED showed that it has completed the recharge
Take these observation with a grain of salt... Only time will tell how this product will perform against the Canon version... The charging unit doesn\'t have dual chargings (like the Canon version), nor does it have a \"refresh\" feature... But at almost 5x cheaper than a new Canon NC-E2 charger and smaller dimension, it\'s a decent alternative especially for its traveling size... As I mentioned, only time will tell on how this product will perform... My initial charge worked like a charm... I\'m currently charging my second battery to see how quickly it will charge (it was half-way depleted)... Stay tune...
