Purchasing OEM Canon Camcorder Batteries vs. 3rd Party Batteries

Many of AtBatt’s camcorder batteries use the same battery cells as OEM Canon batteries. We offer a superior warranty over the OEM manufacturer’s warranty.

Will 3rd Party Batteries Work with My Canon Battery Charger?
AtBatt’s 3rd party camcorder batteries will work with your OEM Canon charger. Many of our camcorder batteries are made with the same battery cells as Canon batteries. AtBatt’s batteries are designed to original manufacturer’s specifications, and will meet or exceed original Canon batteries.
How to Conserve Power on a Single Battery Charge?
There are many features that your camcorder performs which consume more battery power. The absolute worst is using a camcorder light that is powered from your camcorder’s battery. We recommend using a camcorder light that is powered from its own power supply or battery.
Another is by never rewinding or fast-forwarding your tapes on your camcorder. Before you leave your house, cue up your tapes to the desired location with your camcorder plugged to the ac power supply.
Is it better for me to purchase an Original Manufacturer Equipment (OEM) battery or an Aftermarket battery?
That would depend on your point of view. Some people prefer to stick with the OEM battery because they feel safer with it. Other people would prefer to go with an aftermarket version, because in general, they are less expensive then the OEM and in a lot of cases they have a higher capacity. So just do your research and make sure that you evaluate your needs before making this decision.
What can I do with my camcorder battery after it has stopped working?
Once the life of your battery has ended, you need to dispose of it properly. You do not want to throw it in the garbage, bury it or cremate it, because they are not bio-degradable, and they will explode in extreme heat. What you can do however is recycle them. To recycle them all you have to do is check your phone book or look on line for a place that recycles batteries. Also, many battery sellers will help you with this process, such as online sites or even local stores just call first to verify that they actually accept batteries for recycling.
