Thank you guys! I will check out all the options including the cleaning of the contacts to see if that helps.

I use SIDO branded batteries. They were offered by the retailer where I bought my camera, a quite reputable chain in Hong Kong. They were part of the package and they are great. I also have the same brand for my Oly and lumix.

check your charger. plug it and unplug (on the charger, not the outlet) clean the contacts.

if ship and sold by Amazon, would that still be an issue?

Hard to say; you'd think not, but...

If you are not afraid of having to return, perhaps worth the risk? Dunno, for me I am sticking with OEM.

Thank you!

While reading, i found that someone mentioned to buy used like from Amazon for lower price as someone must have baught it and returned it. I can try that route to get original for lower price.

One of my original Canon just lost his life (after 2 years). It shows that it is charged 100% but when I put in all three bodies that I have not bring them up.

After having bad experience with 3th party brand batteries, I ONLY buy genuine Canon. It is worth the price. They last longer, keep their charge don't get hot. Here in TW there is a huge market of other brand batteries, some are really good but the price is similar to originals. I have 3 original Canon's and recharged them 100's of time. they still perform as new.
