Twelve euros for a 2000 mAh LP-E8 replacement at 7.4 volts — the highest capacity on this shelf, with a chip against overcharging and no charger.

Fosmon LP-E8 replacement battery beside a Canon reflex body

Fosmon LP-E8 replacement, 7.4 V, 2000 mAh

Twelve euros for a 2000 mAh LP-E8 replacement at 7.4 volts — the highest capacity on this shelf, with a chip against overcharging and no charger.

Bodies named
NINE, in the first and fifth bullets — Canon EOS 550D, 600D and 650D; Rebel T2i, T3i, T4i and T5i; Kiss X5 and EOS Kiss X6i. Those are the same cameras under European, American and Japanese names, which makes the list shorter than it looks and more useful than a bare part number: a buyer with a Rebel T3i need not know it is a 600D
Capacity in mAh and watt-hours
2000 mAh, in the third bullet — THE HIGHEST FIGURE ON THIS SHELF, against 1500 for both Sony replacements and 1100 for the NEEWER. No watt-hour figure is published, and 2000 mAh at 7.4 V is about 14.8 Wh, which the page leaves for the reader. Canon’s own LP-E8 is rated lower than this, and a third-party cell claiming more capacity than the original is a claim to weigh rather than to trust outright
Voltage
7.4 V, in the third bullet. Matching the original voltage is the non-negotiable part of a replacement: a body expects 7.4 V from an LP-E8 and will not tolerate otherwise
Chip communication described
PARTIALLY: the fourth bullet names an integrated microchip that prevents overcharging and extends battery life. What it does NOT say is whether the chip reports a charge percentage to the camera — which is the difference between a battery showing three bars and one showing an exclamation mark. Two batteries on this shelf are equally vague, and none is explicit
Charger contents
NONE. The fifth bullet describes a replacement battery in Fosmon retail packaging, and nothing else. At 12 € it is the bare cell, for a body whose own charger already exists
Stated protection
Overcharge protection only, via the chip. The 29 € ENEGON and 36 € NEEWER on this shelf both publish four or five protections — over-voltage, over-current, short circuit, overheating
Amazon reference
B008JFBIGS (same reference on 6 Amazon marketplaces)
EAN
0879562228937
  • Two thousand milliamp-hours, the highest capacity on this shelf
  • Nine body names across European, American and Japanese conventions
  • No watt-hour figure, and no charger

Best for: A Canon 550D through 650D that already has its charger and needs a spare cell for the price of two coffees.

On the listing

Five bullets. A Fosmon replacement LP-E8 compatible with the Canon EOS 550D, 600D and 650D, Rebel T2i, T3i, T4i and T5i, and Kiss X5 and EOS Kiss X6i; an exhortation never to run out of battery at the moment worth capturing; a high capacity of 7.4 V and 2000 mAh, rechargeable, with high-quality cell technology; an integrated microchip preventing overcharging and extending battery life; and a replacement battery for the Canon LP-E8 in Fosmon retail packaging.

Two thousand milliamp-hours

The highest figure on this shelf, and higher than the original it replaces. Cell chemistry has improved since the LP-E8 was designed — and a number on a label nobody audits is still a number on a label.

Nine names, three conventions

Six hundred D, Rebel T3i, Kiss X5: the same camera in Europe, America and Japan. The list means a buyer finds their own name without learning the others.

Seven point four volts, which is the part that cannot vary

Capacity is a claim; voltage is a requirement. The body expects 7.4 V and the page publishes it.

A chip, for one job

Overcharge protection. Whether it tells the camera how full the cell is — which is what stops the exclamation mark on the screen — the page does not say.

No charger, at twelve euros

The bare cell. For a body that already has its charger in a drawer, that is the right purchase.

Availability

Between 12 € and 16 € on the German, French, Italian and Spanish Amazon stores when this page was last checked.

The British Amazon store carry it too, priced in local currency. Those amounts are deliberately absent from the range above, which reads euro stores only.

Listed in the American Amazon catalogue with nothing on sale against the entry: the camera has a page there and no seller behind it.

Everything in this section is the figure Keepa carried on the day of the last update to this page. Availability and prices shift without notice.

More camera batteries

  • Pair of DuraPro NP-FW50 batteries for Sony mirrorless bodies

    DuraPro Two NP-FW50, 7.2 V, 1500 mAh, fourteen bodies

    Two NP-FW50 cells at 7.2 V and 1500 mAh for 23 €, with fourteen Sony bodies named — and nothing said about chips or protection.

    Bodies named
    FOURTEEN individual models plus two whole ranges, in the title and the first bullet: the Alpha a6300, a6000, a7, a7s, a7s II, a7r, a7r II, a3000, a5000, a5100 and a7 II, the NEX-7, NEX-6, NEX-F3, NEX-3 and NEX-5, and the SLT-A and Alpha series generally. It is the longest compatibility list on this shelf
    Capacity in mAh and watt-hours
    1500 mAh, in the third bullet, with NO watt-hour figure. At 7.2 V that is about 10.8 Wh. Sony’s own NP-FW50 is rated near 1020 mAh, so 1500 is a substantial claim — and the same figure the 29 € ENEGON publishes, which at least makes the two comparable
    Voltage
    7.2 V, in the third bullet — the NP-FW50 standard, and correctly matched
    Chip communication described
    NOT AT ALL. This is the specification that matters most on a Sony body and the page is silent: Sony cameras read a chip in the battery to show a charge percentage rather than three bars, and a cell without proper communication shows a warning or refuses to report. Four batteries on this shelf say something about their electronics; this one says nothing
    Charger contents
    NONE. The fifth bullet is unambiguous — the package contains two NP-FW50 batteries. No charger, no cable, no case
    Stated protection
    NONE NAMED. The fourth bullet offers high energy density, extra long life and freedom from memory effect, which are properties rather than protections. The 29 € ENEGON lists five circuits by name

    • Two cells for 23 €, the cheapest per battery on this shelf
    • Fourteen Sony bodies named individually, plus two ranges
    • Nothing at all about chip communication, on Sony bodies that expect it

    Best for: A Sony NEX or Alpha body that already has a charger, where two spare cells for 23 € matter more than a percentage readout.

  • NEEWER dual battery charger with LCD display and two NP-FW50 cells

    NEEWER Two cells plus a dual LCD charger, 1100 mAh, 8.1 Wh

    Two cells and a twin charger with an LCD readout for 36 € — the only charger on this shelf, and the only capacity published with its watt-hours and nothing contradicting them.

    Bodies named
    Fourteen models and one range, in the fourth bullet: the ZV-E10, a7, a7R, a7R II, a7 II, a7S II, a7S, a3000, a5000, a6000, a6300, a6400, a6500 and the RX10 series
    Capacity in mAh and watt-hours
    1100 mAh and 8.1 W, both in the first bullet — and unlike the 29 € ENEGON here, no second figure contradicts them. Eleven hundred milliamp-hours is the LOWEST capacity on this shelf and the CLOSEST to Sony’s own rating of about 1020 mAh, which is the more credible position for a third-party cell to take
    Voltage
    NOT PUBLISHED. Every other battery on this shelf gives 7.2 or 7.4 V, and this page gives watt-hours and milliamp-hours without the volts between them — 8.1 Wh over 1100 mAh implies about 7.4 V, which the reader has to derive
    Chip communication described
    Not described. The charger’s LCD reports the state of each cell instead, which answers the question outside the camera rather than inside it
    Charger contents
    A DUAL CHARGER WITH AN LCD DISPLAY — the only charger on this shelf. The first and third bullets give the detail: 2.1 A charging, micro-USB OR USB-C input, and power from a wall charger, a car charger or an external power bank, with the display clearly showing each battery’s charge state. The second bullet adds that the set triples the camera’s running time
    Stated protection
    FOUR circuits, in the fifth bullet: overcharge, short circuit, overheating and over-voltage, in a high-quality fire-resistant construction. One fewer than the ENEGON’s five, and four more than the DuraPro’s none

  • Canon LP-E17 battery pack in black, upright

    Canon LP-E17 — three bullets, no capacity, no voltage

    Forty-one euros for Canon’s own LP-E17, from a page that publishes no capacity, no voltage and no camera — the same three words it prints on its hoods and caps.

    Bodies named
    NONE. Not one camera is named, on a battery whose whole identity is which bodies take it. The LP-E17 belongs to the EOS 750D, 760D, 800D, 77D, 200D, 250D, RP and R8 among others — and a buyer has to know that before arriving
    Capacity in mAh and watt-hours
    NEITHER IS PUBLISHED. Four third-party cells on this shelf publish 2000, 1500, 1500 and 1100 mAh, and two add watt-hours. The original publishes nothing, which makes it the only battery here that cannot be compared with any other on capacity
    Voltage
    NOT PUBLISHED
    Chip communication described
    Not described — and this is the irony of the page. An original Canon cell is precisely the one that reports its charge as a percentage, its remaining life and its serial number to the body, which is the main reason to pay 41 € rather than 12. The listing never mentions it
    Charger contents
    None, and not mentioned
    Stated protection
    None. The three bullets are: durable; flexible design; quality and durability. They are the identical three bullets Canon publishes for its ES-68 lens hood and its E-58II lens cap in this catalogue — a template applied to three unrelated products

Elsewhere in the camera bag

  • HMF ODK100 hard case open showing its pick-and-pluck grid foam

    HMF ODK100, 30.5 by 23 by 14 cm inside, IP67, 1.82 kg

    Forty euros for an IP67 case that publishes everything: 30.5 by 23 by 14 cm inside, split 10.5 and 3.5 between base and lid, three foam layers, 1.82 kg.

    Internal dimensions
    THE MOST COMPLETE FIGURES IN THIS CATALOGUE: 30.5 by 23 by 14 cm inside, and the fifth bullet goes further by splitting the depth — 10.5 cm in the base, 3.5 cm in the lid — inside an exterior of 34 by 29.5 by 15.5 cm measured INCLUDING the handle and catches. The split is what tells you whether a body with a lens fitted stands up in the base
    Ingress rating
    IP67, in the second bullet: dust-tight, and protected against immersion in water to one metre for thirty minutes. It is a standard rather than an adjective, and both cases on this shelf publish it
    Interior type
    THREE LAYERS, itemised in the third bullet: 95 mm of pre-cut grid foam — the pick-and-pluck kind, plucked cube by cube to the shape of the equipment — a 10 mm foam floor beneath it, and CONVOLUTED egg-crate foam in the lid to press down on whatever is below
    Pressure valve
    YES, a pressure-equalisation valve in the fourth bullet. A sealed case carried up a mountain or flown in a hold arrives at a different air pressure from the one it was closed at, and without a valve the lid either jams shut or strains its seal
    Latch and lock provision
    A folding carry handle and EYES FOR PADLOCKS, in the fourth bullet. Padlock eyes are what let a case be checked into a hold or left in a vehicle
    Wheels and handles
    A folding handle, no wheels — correct at this size. Thirty-four centimetres and 1.82 kg is a case that is carried
    Empty weight
    1.82 kg, PUBLISHED in the fifth bullet — the only empty weight on this shelf, and the figure that decides what an airline allowance leaves for the equipment

    • Internal dimensions published with the base and lid depths split out
    • Three foam layers named — pick-and-pluck, floor and convoluted lid
    • No wheels, though at 34 cm none is needed

    Best for: A body, two lenses and a drone taken somewhere wet, dusty or airborne, where the case has to be locked and its weight declared.

  • JJC transparent disposable rain cover over a mirrorless camera and lens

    JJC Two DISPOSABLE covers, 28 by 17 cm, PE film

    Two single-use PE covers for 9 €, 28 by 17 cm, transparent so everything stays visible — emergency protection that lives flat in a bag.

    Lens length accommodated
    Up to 28 cm LONG and 17 cm WIDE, in the first bullet — and the width is the figure nobody else publishes. Length decides whether a telephoto fits; width decides whether a fat zoom or a hood does. Twenty-eight centimetres is the shortest length on this shelf, so this is a cover for a body and a standard lens
    Eyepiece design
    Solved by the material: the whole cover is TRANSPARENT PE FILM, and the third bullet says the viewfinder and the camera controls stay fully visible — no blurred view, no obstruction. A cover you can see through needs no eyepiece opening at all, which is the one advantage of film over fabric
    Hand access
    Through the ends, not through sleeves. It is a sleeve of film with drawcords, so the hands go in where the cords are
    Material and seams
    Lightweight transparent PE film, in the third bullet, described as ultra-thin and easy to carry. No seam treatment is described — and on a single-use cover that matters less, since it is discarded before it can fail
    Closure method
    ADJUSTABLE DRAWCORDS, in the fourth bullet, fitted quickly over the lens with no complicated assembly and pulled tight to stop water entering during a long outdoor session
    Packed size
    Not given as a figure, but the third bullet is explicit about the property: ultra-thin and light, easy to carry in a camera bag. A disposable film cover folds to the size of a handkerchief, which is why two of them can live permanently in a bag pocket

    EAN

    • Transparent throughout, so viewfinder and controls stay visible
    • Both length AND width published — 28 by 17 cm
    • Disposable: two uses, then they are gone

    Best for: Emergency rain that was not forecast, on a body and a standard zoom, from a cover that has been in the bag since the day it was bought.

  • JZK rain cover fitted over a reflex camera with its clear rear panel visible

    JZK 32 cm of lens, full-length zip, no flash space

    Nine euros for a cover taking 32 cm of camera and lens, with a full-length zip and a clear rear panel — and a title that admits there is no room for a flash.

    Lens length accommodated
    32 cm for camera AND lens together, in the first and second bullets — the second-longest on this shelf behind the 39 cm K&F. Thirty-two centimetres takes a reflex with a 70-200 mm zoom; it does not take a 400 mm. The figure is published twice, which on this shelf counts as emphasis
    Eyepiece design
    Not described. Nothing on the page says how the eye reaches the viewfinder — an eyepiece opening, a drawcord, a transparent panel — which on a reflex is how the picture gets composed
    Hand access
    Not described either. The fourth bullet covers the zip and the fifth the screen window, and neither says how a hand reaches the controls
    Material and seams
    Waterproof and dustproof, in the third bullet, usable in the rainy season, in the desert and at the beach. No fabric is named and no seam treatment described — and on a rain cover the seams are where water arrives first
    Closure method
    A FULL-LENGTH ZIP, in the fourth bullet, allowing the cover to be closed from underneath whether the camera is hand-held or on a tripod, without weakening the rain protection. A zip that runs the whole length is what lets the cover go on around a mounted camera rather than over it
    Packed size
    NOT PUBLISHED, as on four of the five covers here. A cover that does not fold small is a cover left at home
    Amazon reference
    B01MS6E4JX (same reference on 6 Amazon marketplaces)
    EAN
    6920484230592
    • Thirty-two centimetres of camera and lens, published twice
    • A full-length zip that closes from below, on a tripod or in the hand
    • The title states there is no space for a flash

    Best for: A reflex with a mid-length zoom in real rain, used on a tripod where the cover has to close underneath.
