Buy Canon Batteries Instead, December 12, 2009
I tried to save a few bucks and bought a couple of these generic "Wasabi Power" batteries. Advertised as containing Japanese cell, these batteries are manufactured in China. Despite have an alleged rating of 1400mAh (compared to Canon's 1120mAh) these batteries - fresh out of the charger - only last about half the time compared to the ingenious Canon battery. If you need a relatively inexpensive backup battery-operated when you need to squeeze out a few more shots, then you could probably kind do with these. However, if you plan on shooting for any appreciable amount of time, I suggest biting the bullet and paying Canon a little more money for the OEM replacement. At lowest you know it will be reliable.

Excellent battery!!, December 3, 2008
I am using this battery beside my Canon PowerShot SD990 IS and it is equal to if not better than the Canon OEM battery which would hold cost me $58.
This is a really good value!

Camera show "battery depleted" right after charge., December 2, 2008
I be expecting a decent replacement battery for this price (>$14). It say 1400mAh, but it is not even close to the original 1140mAh battery. I've charged it several times, but once put within the camera, a few pictures later, camera is flashing the "battery depleted" icon. Will return it!

be using for a year, no problem, December 9, 2009
less expensive, been using it occasionally for a year in need problem. We often seem to entail a spare battery.

GENERIC REPLACEMENT BATTERY FOR CANON ELF CAMERAS, February 7, 2009
I refuse to Pay CANON $46.00 for these battery! I have purchased 44 canon Elph Cameras so far and never have smaller amount than two batteries with me at adjectives times. I paid about $15.00 here and this allows me to hold three on hand for the price of one. I have a sports car charger and the normal charger and never ruin an event by running out of battery to allow for a great shoot...no margins in power available all daylight!
I also use Amazon to buy the Digital Elf KIT which gives you a genuine CANON battery-operated and the Leather Case and a very nice Metal Neck Strap, for around $48.00. That is a Combination and a price that you cannot beat anywhere!
