All of the display functions are present, and they last as long between recharging as the Olympus battery (this may be a little subjective as I maintain no log as to the number of exposures made with each battery.). When out and about for the day there is always a spare, freshly-charged, battery in my pocket or gear bag Practically, I see no difference, other than price, between these and the Olympus-branded battery. This new charger is really handy. It is much smaller and lighter than either the previous Wasabi or Olympus chargers and, therefore, much easier to stow in your gear bag or carry-on. And, being USB powered and since the entire civilized world seems to be becoming inundated with USB outlets, it may be used almost everywhere. I have been using Wasabi batteries in two OMDs and an XZ-2 for several years and have never been disappointed. They have become my batteries of choice.

Hard to determine life expectancy but seems to have lots of life ## Features - COMPATIBILITY - Works with these popular Olympus cameras that use BLN-1 batteries: Olympus OM-D E-M1, OM-D E-M5, OM-D E-M5 MARK II, PEN E-P5, PEN-F - BATTERY & CHARGER SPECS - Premium Grade-A cells rated at 7.6V, 1300mAh for longer run-time and battery life; Charges two batteries simultaneously from any USB source; Input 5V, 2000mA (recommended); Outputs 600mA (x2); Batteries and charger work with Olympus original batteries and Olympus original charger - MULTIPLE CHARGING OPTIONS & OVERCHARGE PROTECTION - Recharge your batteries in a multitude of ways including your wall, car, or powerbank.

This charger will charge Wasabi and Oly batteries **Q: Does this battery work for the em1 mkii?** A: No. The om-d em1 mk ii uses a BLH battery. **Q: Can it charge only one battery? Or do I have to put in two all the time?** A: You can charge only one battery in either one of the slots. **Q: The red light goes off after just a few minutes, without turning green. The battery does not seem to be fully charged. Is this normal?** A: I've never had that happen with mine. I think it's supposed to stay red until it's charged, then it turns green. At no point does the light actually go off ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good batteries, great charger *by F***R on August 2, 2019* The Wasabi batteries work very well in my Olympus OMD.

Hard to determine life expectancy but seems to have lots of life ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 1/2 Batteries Worked, Seller Quickly Replaced! *by R***T on January 28, 2025* One of the batteries works great. The other refuses to hold a charge and lasts me less than 10 minutes.... Wish both came in good condition. Edit: First time using Amazon's messaging to contact the seller. Seller was very quick to respond and sent out a replacement battery. The working one from the first order has been working great so far, no complaints there.
