MAHA is the most reputable brand for consumer rechargable batteries and charger in the U.S. The MAHA PowerEx 2200mAh AA battery, MAHA MH-C401FS 100 minute cool charger and MAHA MH-C777PLUS-II are currently regarded as the best products of their class in the market.

You can check out MAHA products at www.mahaenergy.com. You should be familiar with MAHA products, technology and quality since you have deal with them before. The brand is world reknowned.

We once did a check on Megapower and found out that it's manufactured by a OEM in Shenzhen, China. We can't even find a website on this product.

The MAHA BP-511 definitely outlast the Megapower

You are correct, I am always on continuous frames mode... Guess, I better use single frame mode...

Unless you are using some "pro" style burst mode shooting for the whole day.

Unlikely, as it will be below cost price. It's currently selling for US$39.95 in the U.S.

If you want made in China BP-511 like the brands you mentioned above, I can get for you at below S$30, but Maha is a very good U.S. brand.

Sorry to say this... US brand is US brand... material used and place of manufactured is another story...

I need 2 spare BP-511... the shutter is firing faster than the charger can charge... unless there is a dual-charger...

The original Canon 511 is made by GP and it's only rated at 1100mAh, MAHA BP 511 is rated at true 1300mAh and not only will it last as long as the Canon original, it is sure to exceed it.

If you are looking for a bargain, go for China OEMs, MAHA is not known to be cheap but they are the best for quality. MAHA BP 511 is known to have the lowest impedence, a high impedence would mean that the battery generates more heat when in use which waste more energy. The MAHA brand of battery packs have always been given great mention in many reputable reviews like dpreview.com and MSN Photo as well as magazines such as Popular Photography and PC Photo.
