Synergy Digital Camcorder Battery, Works with Canon VIXIA HF R500 Camcorder, (li-ion, 3.7V, 2100 mAh) Ultra Hi-Capacity Battery

The battery shows up as having more life than the battery that came with the camera, but in reality when it shows 150 minutes of life the 150 mins decreases more rapidly than by the minute. It seems to drop about 2 minutes or so for every actual minute that passes by. It does fit the camcorder and it does work but the battery doesn't hold like it should.

I was hoping to save a little money and bought these batteries that supposedly fit my camcorder. They do fit. But one of the batteries won’t charge but about halfway. Definitely won’t settle for less than the Canon batteries next time.

Arrived quickly. Perfect fit. My original battery was on it's last leg. Ahhhh. Now I'm getting the duration I expect and need.

Battery fits fine. The one issue I have is the camera will not recognize the battery anymore. Not sure where the issue is. Very frustrating not knowing what kind of power I have left on the battery.

Good battery, better than having to buy a whole brand new camera.

Always want numerous batteries on trips so as not to miss any photo ops. These offer long battery life even if you're doing video. Great purchase.

Works as promised. I was able to get about 2 1/2 hours of battery life in my initial uses of this battery, which was more than plenty for my vacation footage.

It did the trick, looks like, and functions like a real canon battery for one-quarter the price. What can I say? I'm satisfied! So far so good.
