7dayshop LP-E6

Work fine, apart from the fact they don't have a serial number which means the camera can't register them. Waiting for a 7D to see if there is anything significant with grip usage (I'll haev 2x official Canon batteries then)

Can you still view how many shots have been taken since last charge and does it show % remaining?
 
Yes
 
I have one it works fine, shows shots and percentage left, that's good enough for me I don't bother with the registration stuff with my Canon battery either.
 
I have one for my 60D. Bearing in mind I mainly shoot manual focus, I can get around 1350 shots out of the Canon battery. The 7dayshop one has been in for three weeks now and done 460 shots. Only weird thing is, it always shows as 34% battery power left! I'll let you know what the final shutter count is before it dies!
 
Did you use live view much? 520 shots isn't great but for 10 quid it's not bad either.

Nope, no live view usage at all really. But, that was the first run in and the battery was in the camera for a month :) Saying that, the original Canon one was used under the same conditions, for the same period of time and last twice as long. But costs five times as much :lol:
 
I recently bought one together with another one from ebay...

ebay one is a bit crap tbh... it suddently dies while still showing full or 2/3 on the camera...

7dayshop one seems to be better.. I haven't used it that much but after about 170 long exposure shots (10s - 20s), it still shows 2 bars...
